Complicated Complementations
Kolmogorov complexity has proven to be a very useful tool in simplifying and improving proofs that use complicated combinatorial arguments. In this paper we use Kolmogorov complexity for oracle construction. We obtain separation results that are much stronger than separations obtained previously even with the use of very complicated combinatorial arguments. Moreover the use of Kolmogorov argume...
متن کاملWhy Kolmogorov Complexity in Physical Equations?
Several researchers, including M. Gell-Mann, argue that the notion of Kolmogorov complexity, developed in the algorithmic information theory, is useful in physics (i.e., in the description of the physical world). Their arguments are rather convincing, but there seems to be a gap between traditional physical equations and Kolmogorov complexity: namely, it is not clear how the standard equations ...
متن کاملSequences close to periodic
The paper is a survey of notions and results related to classical and new generalizations of the notion of a periodic sequence. The topics related to almost periodicity in combinatorics on words, symbolic dynamics, expressibility in logical theories, algorithmic computability, Kolmogorov complexity, number theory, are discussed.
متن کاملAlgorithmic Arguments in Physics of Computation
We show the usefulness of incompressibility arguments based on Kolmogorov complexity in physics of computation by several examples. These include analysis of energy parsimoniousàdiabatic' computation , and scalability of network architectures.
متن کاملA New Approach to Formal Language Theory by Kolmogorov Complexity
We present a new approach to formal language theory using Kolmogorov complexity. The main results presented here are an alternative for pumping lemma(s), a new characterization for regular languages, and a new method to separate deterministic context-free languages and nondeterministic context-free languages. The use of the new ‘incompressibility arguments’ is illustrated by many examples. The ...
