Minimal weak truth table degrees and computably enumerable Turing degrees / Rodney G. Downey, Keng Meng Ng, Reed Solomon.

Two of the central concepts for the study of degree structures in computability theory are computably enumerable degrees and minimal degrees. For strong notions of reducibility, such as m-deducibility or truth table reducibility, it is possible for computably enumerable degrees to be minimal. For we...

Description
Summary:Two of the central concepts for the study of degree structures in computability theory are computably enumerable degrees and minimal degrees. For strong notions of reducibility, such as m-deducibility or truth table reducibility, it is possible for computably enumerable degrees to be minimal. For weaker notions of reducibility, such as weak truth table reducibility or Turing reducibility, it is not possible to combine these properties in a single degree. We consider how minimal weak truth table degrees interact with computably enumerable Turing degrees and obtain three main results. First, the.
