In Corollary 4.18, we showed that the set of all languages is uncountable. Use this result to prove that languages exist that are not recognizable by an oracle Turing machine with an oracle for ATM.
Examine the following formal descriptions of sets so that you understand which members they contain. Write a short informal English description of each set.
Show that if and , then .
A queue automaton is like a push-down automaton except that the stack is replaced by a queue. A queue is a tape allowing symbols to be written only on the left-hand end and read only at the right-hand end. Each write operation (we’ll call it a push) adds a symbol to the left-hand end of the queue and each read operation (we’ll call it a pull) reads and removes a symbol at the right-hand end. As with a PDA, the input is placed on a separate read-only input tape, and the head on the input tape can move only from left to right. The input tape contains a cell with a blank symbol following the input, so that the end of the input can be detected. A queue automaton accepts its input by entering a special accept state at any time. Show that a language can be recognized by a deterministic queue automaton iff the language is Turing-recognizable.
Show that A is decidable iff .
