'''Abstract:''' In this talk, we'll look at the construction of a minimal degree with a strong minimal cover which shows that the three-element chain can be embedded as an initial segment of the Turing Degrees. The construction builds off ideas of Spector's minimal degree with stronger assumptions on the forcing conditions used. If time permits, we'll also talk about Copper's Jump Inversion building off Sack's construction.

'''Title:''' Bushy Tree forcing and constructing a minimal degree which is DNC


'''Abstract:''' We shall look at a forcing technique called Bushy Tree forcing using it to show that there is no uniform way to compute a DNC_2 from a DNC_3 function and that there is a DNC function that is weak in the sense that it does not compute a computably bounded DNC function. We present a few other results along these lines and sketch the construction of a minimal degree that is DNC relative to any given oracle using bushy tree forcing.
Start 4:00PM in VV901! Antonion Nakid-Cordero will continue with Section 4.1, Ang Li will begin Section 4.2.

Revision as of 19:37, 18 November 2024

The Graduate Logic Seminar is an informal space where graduate students and professors present topics related to logic which are not necessarily original or completed work. This is a space focused principally on practicing presentation skills or learning materials that are not usually presented in a class.

  • When: Mondays 3:30-4:30 PM
  • Where: Van Vleck B123
  • Organizer: Mariya Soskova

The talk schedule is arranged at the beginning of each semester. If you would like to participate, please contact the organizers.

Fall 2024

The seminar will be run as a 1-credit seminar Math 975 . In Fall 2024, the topic will be Higher Computability Theory. We will follow notes by Noam Greenberg. If you are not enrolled but would like to audit it, please contact Mariya Soskova.
