Computability of probability measures and Martin-Lof randomness over metric spaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we investigate algorithmic randomness on more general spaces than the Cantor space, namely computable metric spaces. To do this, we first develop a unified framework allowing computations with probability measures. We show that any computable metric space with a computable probability measure is isomorphic to the Cantor space in a computable and measure-theoretic sense. We show that any computable metric space admits a universal uniform randomness test (without further assumption).

An Application of Martin-Löf Randomness to Effective Probability Theory
In this paper we provide a framework for computable analysis of measure, probability and integration theories. We work on computable metric spaces with computable Borel probability measures. We introduce and study the framework of layerwise computability which lies on Martin-Löf randomness and the existence of a universal randomness test. We then prove characterizations of effective notions of ...
متن کاملNoncommutative Martin-Lof randomness : on the concept of a random sequence of qubits
Martin-Lof’s definition of random sequences of cbits as those not belonging to any set of constructive zero Lebesgue measure is reformulated in the language of Algebraic Probability Theory. The adoption of the Pour-El Richards theory of computability structures on Banach spaces allows us to give a natural noncommutative extension of Martin-Lof’s definition , characterizing the random elements o...
متن کاملAlgorithmic randomness over general spaces
Algorithmic randomness over general spaces has been considered such as an effective topological space and a computable metric space. In this paper we generalize algorithmic randomness to a computable topological space. First we define computable measures on a computable topological space and study computability of the evaluation. Next we define randomnesses via three approaches. Measure randomn...
متن کاملEffective Randomness for Computable Probability Measures
Any notion of effective randomness that is defined with respect to arbitrary computable probability measures canonically induces an equivalence relation on such measures for which two measures are considered equivalent if their respective classes of random elements coincide. Elaborating on work of Bienvenu [1], we determine all the implications that hold between the equivalence relations induce...
متن کاملUniversal test for Hippocratic randomness
Hippocratic randomness is defined in a similar way to Martin-Löf randomness, however it does not assume computability of the probability and the existence of universal test is not assured. We introduce the notion of approximation of probability and show the existence of the universal test (Levin-Schnorr theorem) for Hippocratic randomness when the logarithm of the probability is approximated wi...
