Turing Machines on Graphs and Inescapable Groups
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a generalization of standard Turing machines based on allowing unusual tapes. We present a set of reasonable constraints on tape geometry and classify all tapes conforming to these constraints. Surprisingly, this generalization does not lead to yet another equivalent formulation of the notion of computable function. Rather, it gives an alternative definition of the recursively enumerable Turing degrees that does not rely on oracles. The definitions give rise to a number of questions about computable paths inside Cayley graphs of finitely generated groups, and several of these questions are answered.

Some improvements in fuzzy turing machines
In this paper, we improve some previous definitions of fuzzy-type Turing machines to obtain degrees of accepting and rejecting in a computational manner. We apply a BFS-based search method and some level’s upper bounds to propose a computational process in calculating degrees of accepting and rejecting. Next, we introduce the class of Extended Fuzzy Turing Machines equipped with indeterminacy s...
متن کاملOn Extremal Graph Theory, Explicit Algebraic Constructions of Extremal Graphs and Corresponding Turing Encryption Machines
We observe recent results on the applications of extremal graph theory to cryptography. Classical Extremal Graph Theory contains Erdős Even Circuite Theorem and other remarkable results on the maximal size of graphs without certain cycles. Finite automaton is roughly a directed graph with labels on directed arrows. The most important advantage of Turing machine in comparison with finite automat...
متن کاملOn Separators, Segregators and Time versus Space
We give the first extension of the result due to Paul, Pippenger, Szemeredi and Trotter [24] that deterministic linear time is distinct from nondeterministic linear time. We show that NTIME(n √ log∗(n)) 6= DTIME(n √ log∗(n)). We show that if the class of multi-pushdown graphs has (o(n), o(n/log(n))) segregators, then NTIME(nlog(n)) 6= DTIME(nlog(n)). We also show that atleast one of the followi...
متن کاملPower of Nondetreministic JAGs on Cayley graphs
The Immerman-Szelepcsenyi Theorem uses an algorithm for co-stconnectivity based on inductive counting to prove that NLOGSPACE is closed under complementation. We want to investigate whether counting is necessary for this theorem to hold. Concretely, we show that Nondeterministic Jumping Graph Autmata (ND-JAGs) (pebble automata on graphs), on several families of Cayley graphs, are equal in power...
