Kolmogorov complexity of prefixes of computable sequences

Let the characteristic sequence of a set $A ⊆ \mathbb{Z^+}$ be the following infinite binary sequence: $$χ_A = b_1b_2b_3\ldots,$$ whose $n$th bit is 1 if $n ∈ A$ And 0 otherwise. Write $χ_{A,n}$ for …

Non Regularity proof using Kolmogorov Complexity (Li - Vitanyi Theorem)

When proving a language is non regular we can use Kolmogorov complexity. As far I know to do this we just have to use this satisfy the following conditions Given $Y^A_{x,n}$= the nth string $y∈Σ^∗$ (i …

Prove that A is non-regular using K-Complexity Non regularity theorem

Given $Y^A_{x,n}$= the nth string $y∈Σ^∗$ (in lex order) such that $xy∈A$ (if n such y exits). So what completes $x$ if adding $n$ such $y$'s brings us to an element in the set $A$ Given $A \subseteq …

Kolmogorov Complexity proving there exists a constant for when if two strings are equal length

When talking about kolmogorov complexity, I understand that it describes true randomness of given (for now) a string $x$, if we can describe x in less than the $|x|$ then its complexity is said to be …
