  • First Online:
Computability and Complexity

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 10010))

Abstract

The relationship between enumeration degrees and abstract models of computability inspires a new direction in the field of computable structure theory. Computable structure theory uses the notions and methods of computability theory in order to find the effective contents of some mathematical problems and constructions. The paper is a survey on the computable structure theory from the point of view of enumeration reducibility.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Note, that this indexing does not quite match the usual definition of computable infinitary formulas, namely level zero in this definition corresponds to level one in the usual definition.

  2. 2.

    Theorem 17 was first announced by Soskov during his LC talk in Münster in 2002.
