Computable Exchangeable Sequences Have Computable de Finetti Measures
Abstract. We prove a uniformly computable version of de Finetti’s theorem on exchangeable sequences of real random variables. In the process, we develop machinery for computably ...

Multi-dimensional Rankings, Program Termination, and Complexity Bounds of Flowchart Programs
Abstract. Proving the termination of a flowchart program can be done by exhibiting a ranking function, i.e., a function from the program states to a wellfounded set, which strictl...
