Recursion Theory : : Computational Aspects of Definability / / Chi Tat Chong, Liang Yu.

This monograph presents recursion theory from a generalized point of view centered on the computational aspects of definability. A major theme is the study of the structures of degrees arising from two key notions of reducibility, the Turing degrees and the hyperdegrees, using techniques and ideas f...
