Verifying Time Complexity of Deterministic Turing Machines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We show that, for all reasonable functions $T(n)=o(n\log n)$, we can algorithmically verify whether a given one-tape Turing machine runs in time at most $T(n)$. This is a tight bound on the order of growth for the function $T$ because we prove that, for $

Local Transition Functions of Quantum Turing Machines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Foundations of the notion of quantum Turing machines are investigated. According to Deutsch's formulation, the time evolution of a quantum Turing machine is to be determined by the local transition function.

Undecidability and Complexity for Super-Turing Models of Computation

open access: yesProceedings, 2022
It seems that intelligent complex systems will require formalisms having richer behavior than Turing machines. Very little is known about the relations (e.g., the expressiveness and/or effectiveness) between new super-Turing models of computation.

Addressing Machines as models of lambda-calculus [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2022
Turing machines and register machines have been used for decades in theoretical computer science as abstract models of computation. Also the $\lambda$-calculus has played a central role in this domain as it allows to focus on the notion of functional ...

Going beyond Church–Turing Thesis Boundaries: Digital Genes, Digital Neurons and the Future of AI

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
The Church–Turing thesis deals with computing functions that are described by a list of formal, mathematical rules or sequences of event-driven actions such as modeling, simulation, business workflows, etc.

Computability and human symbolic output [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper concerns “human symbolic output,” or strings of characters produced by humans in our various symbolic systems; e.g., sentences in a natural language, mathematical propositions, and so on.

The Turing Machine on the Dissecting Table

open access: yesTeorie vědy, 2013
THE TURING MACHINE ON THE DISSECTING TABLE Abstract: Since the beginning of the twenty-first century there has been an increasing awareness that software rep- resents a blind spot in new media theory.

An Analogue-Digital Model of Computation: Turing Machines with Physical Oracles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We introduce an abstract analogue-digital model of computation that couples Turing machines to oracles that are physical processes. Since any oracle has the potential to boost the computational power of a Turing machine, the effect on the power of the ...

On the Proper Treatment of Dynamics in Cognitive Science

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract This essay examines the relevance of dynamical ideas for cognitive science. On its own, the mere mathematical idea of a dynamical system is too weak to serve as a scientific theory of anything, and dynamical approaches within cognitive science are too rich and varied to be subsumed under a single “dynamical hypothesis.” Instead, after first ...

Turing Machine Approach To Runtime Software Adaptation

open access: yesComputer Science, 2014
In this paper, the problem of applying changes to software at runtime is considered. The computability theory is used in order to develop a more general and programming-language-independent model of computation with support for runtime changes.
