On Kolmogorov Structure Functions

Samuel Epstein

All strings with low mutual information with the halting sequence will have flat Kolmogorov Structure Functions, in the context of Algorithmic Statistics. Assuming the Independence…

Semi-Classical Subspaces, The No Synchronization Law, and More

Samuel Epstein

This paper looks at the intersection of algorithmic information theory and physics, namely quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and black holes. We discuss theorems which characteriz…

Game Derandomization

Samuel Epstein

Using Kolmogorov Game Derandomization, upper bounds of the Kolmogorov complexity of deterministic winning players against deterministic environments can be proved. This paper gives…

Two Quantum Paradigms, but Still No Signal

Samuel Epstein

An overwhelming majority of quantum (pure and mixed) states, when undertaking a POVM measurement, will result in a classical probability with no algorithmic information. Thus most…

Two Simple Proofs of Müller's Theorem

Samuel Epstein

Due to Müller's theorem, the Kolmogorov complexity of a string was shown to be equal to its quantum Kolmogorov complexity. Thus there are no benefits to using quantum mechanics to…

The Randomness Deficiency Function and the Shift Operator

Samuel Epstein

Almost surely, the difference between the randomness deficiencies of two infinite sequences will be unbounded with respect to repeated iterations of the shift operator.

Sets Have Simple Members

Samuel Epstein, Leonid A. Levin

The combined Universal Probability M(D) of strings x in sets D is close to max M({x}) over x in D: their ~logs differ by at most D's information j=I(D:H) about the halting sequence…
