Characterizing normality via automata and random matrix products

Laurent Bienvenu, Santiago Cifuentes, Hugo Gimbert

For a fixed alphabet A, an infinite sequence X is said to be normal if every word w over A appears in X with the same frequency as any other word of the same length. A classical re…

Probabilistic vs deterministic gamblers

Laurent Bienvenu, Valentino Delle Rose, Tomasz Steifer

Can a probabilistic gambler get arbitrarily rich when all deterministic gamblers fail? We study this problem in the context of algorithmic randomness, introducing a new notion -- a…

Relativized depth

Laurent Bienvenu, Valentino Delle Rose, Wolfgang Merkle

Bennett's notion of depth is usually considered to describe the usefulness and internal organization of the information encoded into an object such as an infinite binary sequence.…

Some Questions of Uniformity in Algorithmic Randomness

Laurent Bienvenu, Barbara Csima, Matthew Harrison-Trainor

The numbers-the halting probabilities of universal prefix-free machines-are known to be exactly the Martin-L{ö}f random left-c.e. reals. We show that one cannot uniformly produ…

Bad oracles in higher computability and randomness

Laurent Bienvenu, Noam Greenberg, Benoit Monin

Many constructions in computability theory rely on "time tricks". In the higher setting, relativising to some oracles shows the necessity of these. We construct an oracle~ and a…

Optimal bounds for single-source Kolmogorov extractors

Laurent Bienvenu, Barbara F. Csima, Matthew Harrison-Trainor

The rate of randomness (or dimension) of a string is the ratio where is the Kolmogorov complexity of . While it is known that a single computable transform…
