There is a dependency between computability of algorithmic complexity and decidability of different algorithmic problems. It is known that computability of the algorithmic complexity C(x) is equivalent to decidability of the halting problem for Turing machines. Here we extend this result to the realm of superrecursivealgorithms, considering algorithmic complexity for inductive Turing machines. We study two types of algorithmic complexity: recursive (classical) and inductive algorithmic complexities. Relations between these types of algorithmic complexity and decidability of algorithmic problems for Turing machines and inductive Turing machines are considered. In particular, it is demonsrated that computability of algorithmic complexity is equivalent not only to decidability of the halting problem, but also to decidability by inductive Turing machines of the first order of many other problems for Turing machines, such as: if a Turing machine computes a recursive (total) function;if a Turing machine gives no result only for n inputs;if a Turing machine gives results only for n inputs.

In this paper, we analyze network recovery algorithms, which allow computer networks to properly function in spite of failures. In this analysis, we use methods and tools of the theory of super-recursive algorithms. The concept of algorithm of the second level is introduced and studied. It is demonstrated that although the main components of various check-point/recovery algorithms are recursivealgorithms, check-point/recovery algorithms, as a whole, are super-recursive second-level algorithms. Treating network recovery algorithms as second level algorithms is oriented at developing more powerful algorithms by combining existing ones in a common schema.

Nonlinear phenomena, which are so important in nature and society, are considered here in relation to the world of algorithms and computations. To have a mathematical model for this world, formal computability spaces are introduced. It is demonstrated that the traditional approach to algorithms, which is based on such popular models as Turing machines, results in linear subspaces of the computability space. Nonlinear phenomena appear when we go to the more powerful class of such super-recursive algorithms as inductive Turing machines. It is demonstrated how this nonlinearity imports much higher computing power of inductive Turing machines in comparison with conventional Turing machines. This provides a base to consider problems of chaos, emergent computations and infinity from the algorithmic point of view.

The main goal of this paper is to compare recursivealgorithms such as Turing machines with such super-recursive algorithms as inductive Turing machines. This comparison is made in a general setting of dual complexity measures such as Kolmogorov or algorithmic complexity. To make adequate comparison, we reconsider the standard axiomatic approach to complexity of algorithms. The new approach allows us to achieve a more adequate representation of static system complexity in the axiomatic context. It is demonstrated that for solving many problems inductive Turing machines have much lower complexity than Turing machines and other recursivealgorithms. Thus, inductive Turing machines are not only more powerful, but also more efficient than Turing machines. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
