Possibilities and impossibilities in Kolmogorov complexity extraction
Randomness extraction is the process of constructing a source of randomness of high quality from one or several sources of randomness of lower quality. The problem can be modeled ...

Kolmogorov Complexity in Randomness Extraction
We clarify the role of Kolmogorov complexity in the area of randomness extraction. We show that a computable function is an almost randomness extractor if and only if it is a Kolm...

Reconciling Data Compression and Kolmogorov Complexity
While data compression and Kolmogorov complexity are both about effective coding of words, the two settings differ in the following respect. A compression algorithm or compressor...
