Computability of the entropy of one-tape Turing Machines
Résumé
We prove that the maximum speed and the entropy of a one-tape Turing machine are computable, in the sense that we can approximate them to any given precision $\epsilon$. This is contrary to popular belief, as all dynamical properties are usually undecidable for Turing machines. The result is quite specific to one-tape Turing machines, as it is not true anymore for two-tape Turing machines by the results of Blondel et al., and uses the approach of crossing sequences introduced by Hennie.
