'''Title:''' Strong minimal covers and the cupping property
 
'''Abstract:''' A longstanding question in degree theory has been whether every minimal Turing degree has a strong minimal cover. Meanwhile a strong example of degrees without SMC's are those which have the cupping property. It is known that PA degrees have the cupping property, as do degrees with a certain amount of escaping power. On the other hand, it is known that being weak in the sense of being non DNC and Hyperimmune-free lets you have a SMC. Degrees with the cupping property are closed upwards while it is not known if degrees with SMC are closed downwards.  It is also not known if every degree either has the cupping property or a SMC. In this talk we will review several of these results and present techniques used to build SMCs.

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 B235
  • Organizer: Mariya Soskova

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


Spring 2025

The seminar will be run as a 1-credit seminar Math 975. In Spring 2025, we will finish last semester's topic on Higher Computability Theory.Once we are done students will present a logic topic of their choice (it could be original work, but does not have to be). If you are not enrolled but would like to audit it, please contact Mariya Soskova.

Title: Strong minimal covers and the cupping property

Abstract: A longstanding question in degree theory has been whether every minimal Turing degree has a strong minimal cover. Meanwhile a strong example of degrees without SMC's are those which have the cupping property. It is known that PA degrees have the cupping property, as do degrees with a certain amount of escaping power. On the other hand, it is known that being weak in the sense of being non DNC and Hyperimmune-free lets you have a SMC. Degrees with the cupping property are closed upwards while it is not known if degrees with SMC are closed downwards. It is also not known if every degree either has the cupping property or a SMC. In this talk we will review several of these results and present techniques used to build SMCs.
