Randomness of formal languages via automatic martingales
نویسنده
چکیده
We define a notion of randomness for individual and collections of formal languages based on automatic martingales acting on sequences of words from some underlying domain. An automatic martingale bets if the incoming word belongs to the target language or not. Then randomness of both single languages and collections of languages is defined as a failure of automatic martingale to gain an unbounded capital by betting on the target language according to an incoming sequence of words, or a text. The randomness of formal languages turned out to be heavily dependent on the text. For very general classes of texts, any nonregular language happens to be random when considered individually. As for collections of languages, very general classes of texts permits nonrandomness of automatic families of languages only. On the other hand, an arbitrary computable language is be shown to be nonrandom under certain dynamic texts.

Lowness for uniform Kurtz randomness
We propose studying uniform Kurtz randomness, which is the uniform relativization of Kurtz randomness. One advantage of this notion is that lowness for uniform Kurtz randomness has many characterizations, such as those via complexity, martingales, Kurtz tt-traceability, and Kurtz dimensional measure.
متن کاملConnecting Yule Process, Bisection and Binary Search Tree via Martingales
We present new links between some remarkable martingales found in the study of the Binary Search Tree or of the bisection problem, looking at them on the probability space of a continuous time binary branching process.
متن کاملOn the history of martingales in the study of randomness
Martingales played an important role in the study of randomness in the twentieth century. Jean Ville invented martingales in the 1930s in order to improve Richard von Mises’ concept of a collective, and Claus-Peter Schnorr made martingales algorithmic in the 1970s in order to advance the study of algorithmic randomness.
متن کاملUniform Kurtz randomness
We propose studying uniform Kurtz randomness, which is the uniform relativization of Kurtz randomness. This notion has more natural properties than the usual relativization. For instance, van Lambalgen’s theorem holds for uniform Kurtz randomness while not for (the usual relativization of) Kurtz randomness. Another advantage is that lowness for uniform Kurtz randomness has many characterization...
متن کاملConvergent Martingales of Operators and the Radon Nikodým Property in Banach Spaces
We extend Troitsky’s ideas on measure-free martingales on Banach lattices to martingales of operators acting between a Banach lattice and a Banach space. We prove that each norm bounded martingale of cone absolutely summing (c.a.s.) operators (also known as 1-concave operators), from a Banach lattice E to a Banach space Y , can be generated by a single c.a.s. operator. As a consequence, we obta...
