List of short courses and hour lectures 527 Preface The 1982 AMS Summer Research Institute was cosponsored by the ASL and was devoted to Recursion Theory. It met at Cornell University from June 28 to July 16. Our intention was to consider recursion theory in the broadest sense. This is reflected in the lists of participants and lectures (Appendices I and II) as well as in the contents of this Proceedings volume. The hour talks were roughly grouped around seven short courses—two in Classical Recursion Theory and one each in Generalized Recursion Theory, Fine Structure of L, Descriptive Set Theory, Effective Mathematics and Complexity Theory (Computer Sciences). These series correspond to the sections of this volume except that we have put the two set theoretic subjects into one section and have combined the papers on the founda• tional topics with those on computer science. Both of these are natural alignments since the talks in Descriptive Set Theory dealt mainly with the structure of L(R) and the papers in complexity theory are strongly related to classical undecidabil- ity and incompleteness results. This volume contains contributions representing most of the short courses and hour lectures given at the Institute. The papers representing the talks by Martin, Steel and Woodin in Descriptive Set Theory have however appeared in Cabal Seminar, 1979-81 Springer Lecture Notes in Mathematics no. 1019. In addition to the courses and hour lectures there were many shorter talks given by the participants and organized in sections. Extended abstracts for thirty-two of these talks appeared as a special bound issue of the Recursive Function Theory Newsletter edited by Iraj Kalantari under the auspices of Western Illinois and Cornell Universities. As Cochairmen of the organizing committee we would like to thank our fellow committee members, S. Feferman, Y. Moschovakis, H. Putnam, G. Sacks, J. Shoenfield and R. Soare for their advice and encouragement. The excellent logistical support which helped make the Institute a success was provided by Peter Fejer who was the local coordinator and especially by Dottie Smith of the AMS who helped run just about everything. Both deserve our thanks. Anil Nerode Richard A.

  • 6.5 the Recursion Theorem
    6.5. THE RECURSION THEOREM 417 6.5 The Recursion Theorem The recursion Theorem, due to Kleene, is a fundamental result in recursion theory. Theorem 6.5.1 (Recursion Theorem, Version 1 )Letϕ0,ϕ1,... be any ac- ceptable indexing of the partial recursive functions. For every total recursive function f, there is some n such that ϕn = ϕf(n). The recursion Theorem can be strengthened as follows. Theorem 6.5.2 (Recursion Theorem, Version 2 )Letϕ0,ϕ1,... be any ac- ceptable indexing of the partial recursive functions. There is a total recursive function h such that for all x ∈ N,ifϕx is total, then ϕϕx(h(x)) = ϕh(x). 418 CHAPTER 6. ELEMENTARY RECURSIVE FUNCTION THEORY A third version of the recursion Theorem is given below. Theorem 6.5.3 (Recursion Theorem, Version 3 ) For all n ≥ 1, there is a total recursive function h of n +1 arguments, such that for all x ∈ N,ifϕx is a total recursive function of n +1arguments, then ϕϕx(h(x,x1,...,xn),x1,...,xn) = ϕh(x,x1,...,xn), for all x1,...,xn ∈ N. As a first application of the recursion theorem, we can show that there is an index n such that ϕn is the constant function with output n. Loosely speaking, ϕn prints its own name. Let f be the recursive function such that f(x, y)=x for all x, y ∈ N. 6.5. THE RECURSION THEOREM 419 By the s-m-n Theorem, there is a recursive function g such that ϕg(x)(y)=f(x, y)=x for all x, y ∈ N.

  • April 22 7.1 Recursion Theorem
    CSE 431 Theory of Computation Spring 2014 Lecture 7: April 22 Lecturer: James R. Lee Scribe: Eric Lei Disclaimer: These notes have not been subjected to the usual scrutiny reserved for formal publications. They may be distributed outside this class only with the permission of the Instructor. An interesting question about Turing machines is whether they can reproduce themselves. A Turing machine cannot be be defined in terms of itself, but can it still somehow print its own source code? The answer to this question is yes, as we will see in the recursion theorem. Afterward we will see some applications of this result. 7.1 Recursion Theorem Our end goal is to have a Turing machine that prints its own source code and operates on it. Last lecture we proved the existence of a Turing machine called SELF that ignores its input and prints its source code. We construct a similar proof for the recursion theorem. We will also need the following lemma proved last lecture. ∗ ∗ Lemma 7.1 There exists a computable function q :Σ ! Σ such that q(w) = hPwi, where Pw is a Turing machine that prints w and hats. Theorem 7.2 (Recursion theorem) Let T be a Turing machine that computes a function t :Σ∗ × Σ∗ ! Σ∗. There exists a Turing machine R that computes a function r :Σ∗ ! Σ∗, where for every w, r(w) = t(hRi; w): The theorem says that for an arbitrary computable function t, there is a Turing machine R that computes t on hRi and some input. Proof: We construct a Turing Machine R in three parts, A, B, and T , where T is given by the statement of the theorem.

J. C. HURKENS, MONICA McARTHUR, YIANNIS N. MOSCHOVAKIS, LAWRENCE S. MOSS, AND GLEN T. WHITNEY Abstract. We study logical systems for reasoning about equations involving recursive definitions. In particular, we are interested in "propositional" fragments of the functional language of recursion FLR [18, 17], i.e., without the value passing or abstraction allowed in FLR. The 'pure," propositional fragment FLRo turns out to coincide with the iteration theories of [1]. Our main focus here concerns the sharp contrast between the simple class of valid identities and the very complex consequence relation over several natural classes of models.

    GENERIC LARGE CARDINALS AS AXIOMS MONROE ESKEW Abstract. We argue against Foreman’s proposal to settle the continuum hy- pothesis and other classical independent questions via the adoption of generic large cardinal axioms. Shortly after proving that the set of all real numbers has a strictly larger car- dinality than the set of integers, Cantor conjectured his Continuum Hypothesis (CH): that there is no set of a size strictly in between that of the integers and the real numbers [1]. A resolution of CH was the first problem on Hilbert’s famous list presented in 1900 [19]. G¨odel made a major advance by constructing a model of the Zermelo-Frankel (ZF) axioms for set theory in which the Axiom of Choice and CH both hold, starting from a model of ZF. This showed that the axiom system ZF, if consistent on its own, could not disprove Choice, and that ZF with Choice (ZFC), a system which suffices to formalize the methods of ordinary mathematics, could not disprove CH [16]. It remained unknown at the time whether models of ZFC could be found in which CH was false, but G¨odel began to suspect that this was possible, and hence that CH could not be settled on the basis of the normal methods of mathematics. G¨odel remained hopeful, however, that new mathemati- cal axioms known as “large cardinals” might be able to give a definitive answer on CH [17]. The independence of CH from ZFC was finally solved by Cohen’s invention of the method of forcing [2]. Cohen’s method showed that ZFC could not prove CH either, and in fact could not put any kind of bound on the possible number of cardinals between the sizes of the integers and the reals.

  • Fractal Curves and Complexity
    Perception & Psychophysics 1987, 42 (4), 365-370 Fractal curves and complexity JAMES E. CUTI'ING and JEFFREY J. GARVIN Cornell University, Ithaca, New York Fractal curves were generated on square initiators and rated in terms of complexity by eight viewers. The stimuli differed in fractional dimension, recursion, and number of segments in their generators. Across six stimulus sets, recursion accounted for most of the variance in complexity judgments, but among stimuli with the most recursive depth, fractal dimension was a respect­ able predictor. Six variables from previous psychophysical literature known to effect complexity judgments were compared with these fractal variables: symmetry, moments of spatial distribu­ tion, angular variance, number of sides, P2/A, and Leeuwenberg codes. The latter three provided reliable predictive value and were highly correlated with recursive depth, fractal dimension, and number of segments in the generator, respectively. Thus, the measures from the previous litera­ ture and those of fractal parameters provide equal predictive value in judgments of these stimuli. Fractals are mathematicalobjectsthat have recently cap­ determine the fractional dimension by dividing the loga­ tured the imaginations of artists, computer graphics en­ rithm of the number of unit lengths in the generator by gineers, and psychologists. Synthesized and popularized the logarithm of the number of unit lengths across the ini­ by Mandelbrot (1977, 1983), with ever-widening appeal tiator. Since there are five segments in this generator and (e.g., Peitgen & Richter, 1986), fractals have many curi­ three unit lengths across the initiator, the fractionaldimen­ ous and fascinating properties. Consider four. sion is log(5)/log(3), or about 1.47.

What did Georg Cantor discover? What were the consequences for him? 2. What did von Koch do? 3. What did Benoit Mandelbrot realize? 4. Why should we look at our hand? 5. What did Ron get a scholarship for? 6. In what situation did Ron use the phrase “I am a mathematician and I would like to stand on your roof.” ? 7. What is special about the royal palace? 8. What do the rings in a village in southern Zambia represent? 3)Listen for the second time and decide whether the statements are true or false. 1. Cantor realized that he had a set whose number of elements was equal to infinity. 2. When he was released from a hospital, he lost his faith in God. 3. We can use whatever seed shape we like to start with. 4. Mathematicians of the 19th century did not understand the concept of iteration and infinity. 5. Ron mentions lungs, kidney, ferns, and acacia trees to demonstrate fractals in nature. 6. The chief was very surprised when Ron wanted to see his village. 7. Termites do not create conscious fractals when building their mounds. 8. The tiny village inside the larger village is for very old people. I want to start my story in Germany, in 1877, with a mathematician named Georg Cantor. And Cantor decided he was going to take a line and erase the middle third of the line, and take those two resulting lines and bring them back into the same process, a recursive process.

  • Lab 8: Recursion and Fractals
    Lab 8: Recursion and Fractals In this lab you’ll get practice creating fractals with recursion. You will create a class that has will draw (at least) two types of fractals. Once completed, submit your .java file via Moodle. To make grading easier, please set up your class so that both fractals are drawn automatically when the constructor is executed. Create a Sierpinski triangle Step 1: In your class’s constructor, ask the user how large a canvas s/he wants. Step 2: Write a method drawTriangle that draws a triangle on the screen. This method will take the x,y coordinates of three points as well as the color of the triangle. For now, start with Step 3: In a method createSierpinski, determine the largest triangle that can fit on the canvas (given the canvas’s dimensions supplied by the user). Step 4: Create a method findMiddlePoints. This is the recursive method. It will take three sets of x,y coordinates for the outer triangle. (The first time the method is called, it will be called with the coordinates determined by the createSierpinski method.) The base case of the method will be determined by the minimum size triangle that can be displayed. The recursive case will be to calculate the three midpoints, defined by the three inputs. Then, by using the six coordinates (3 passed in and 3 calculated), the method will recur on the three interior triangles. Once these recursive calls have finished, use drawTriangle to draw the triangle defined by the three original inputs to the method.

  • A NEW L¨OWENHEIM-SKOLEM THEOREM 1. Introduction The
    TRANSACTIONS OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 357, Number 5, Pages 1693–1715 S 0002-9947(04)03445-2 Article electronically published on December 16, 2004 ANEWLOWENHEIM-SKOLEM¨ THEOREM MATTHEW FOREMAN AND STEVO TODORCEVIC Abstract. This paper establishes a refinement of the classical L¨owenheim- Skolem theorem. The main result shows that any first order structure has a countable elementary substructure with strong second order properties. Sev- eral consequences for Singular Cardinals Combinatorics are deduced from this. 1. Introduction The L¨owenheim-Skolem Theorem [21] is one of the classical and formative results of first order logic. Its consequences have been important technically in the devel- opment of Model Theory, Set Theory and interesting from the point of view of the Philosophy of Mathematics [16]. In this paper we improve the L¨owenheim-Skolem Theorem and deduce important combinatorial consequences from the stronger ver- sion. There have been many attempts to improve and generalize properties of first order logic to stronger logics. The literature is much too large to survey here. One property that defines first order logic is the fact that every infinite structure in a countable language has a countable elementary substructure. This is not true of many stronger logics such as second order logic. In particular, in the classical L¨owenheim-Skolem theorem, one has no control over the second order properties of the elementary substructure. In this paper we prove that if one fixes in advance a collection of “intervals” around each point in a particular domain κ (e.g. a club guessing ladder system), then for all real numbers r and all structures A with domain κ, there is a countable elementary substructure of A that has non-empty intersection with exactly those intervals specified by r.
