Kolmogorov Complexity and Solovay Functions
Abstract : Solovay proved that there exists a computable upper bound f of the prefix-free Kolmogorov complexity function K such that f (x) = K(x) for infinitely many x. In this paper, we consider the class of computable functions f such that K(x) ≤ f (x)+O(1) for all x and f (x) ≤ K(x) + O(1) for infinitely many x, which we call Solovay functions. We show that Solovay functions present interesting connections with randomness notions such as Martin-Löf randomness and K-triviality.
