Synthetic Computability (MFPS XXIII Tutorial)

A tutorial presented at the Mathematical Foundations of Programming Semantics XXIII Tutorial Day.

First Steps in Synthetic Computability Theory (Fischbachau)

At the EST training workshop in Fischbachau, Germany, I gave two lectures on syntehtic computability theory. This version of the talk contains material on recursive analysis which is not found in the MFPS XXI version of a similar talk.

Abstract:
Computability theory, which investigates computable functions and computable sets, lies at the foundation of logic and computer [...]

First Steps in Synthetic Computability Theory (MFPS XXI)

Abstract: Computability theory, which investigates computable functions and computable sets, lies at the foundation of computer science. Its classical presentations usually involve a fair amount of Gödel encodings which sometime obscure ingenious arguments. Consequently, there have been a number of presentations of computability theory that aimed to present the subject in an abstract and conceptually [...]
