Computable functions • Definition 5.17: A function f:Σ*→Σ* is a computable function if some Turing machine M, on every input w, halts with just f(w) on its tape. • Example: The increment function inc++:{1}* → {1}* is Turing-computable
Incrementing • inc++:{1}* → {1}* Infinite tape 1 1 1 ⨆ 1 ⨆ ⨆ ⨆ Finite control
Transforming machines F = "On input <M>: • Construct the machine M∞ = "On input x: • Run M on x. • If M accepts, accept. • If M rejects, loop." • Output <M∞>."
Mapping reducibility • Definition 5.20: Language A is mapping reducible to language B, written A ≤m B, if there is a computable function f:Σ* → Σ*, where for every w, w ∈ A ⇔ f(w) ∈ B A B f f
Problem reduction • Theorem 5.22: If A ≤m B and B is decidable, then A is decidable. A B f f
And… the contrapositive • Theorem 5.22: If A ≤m B and B is decidable, then A is decidable. • Corollary 5.23: If A ≤m B and A is undecidable, then B is undecidable.
A familiar mapping reduction… ATM = {<M,w> | M is a TM and M accepts w} ≤m HALTTM = {<M,w> | M is a TM & M halts on input w} ATM HALTTM f <M,w> <M∞,w> f <M,w> <M∞,w>
ATM≤mHALTTM F = "On input <M>: • Construct the machine M∞ = "On input x: • Run M on x. • If M accepts, accept. • If M rejects, loop." • Output <M∞>." ATM HALTTM f <M,w> <M∞,w> f <M,w> <M∞,w>
Similarly… • Theorem 5.28: If A ≤m B and B is Turing-recognizable, then A is Turing-recognizable. • Theorem 5.29: If A ≤m B and A is not Turing-recognizable, then B is not Turing-recognizable.
