Question

(a) For every language L over ? at least one of L and L^C is Turing-recognizable. (b) If languages L_1 and L_2 over ? are both regular with L_1 ? L_2, then a language L that is sandwiched between them, that is L_1 ? L ? L_2 is Turing-recognizable. (c) For every language L over ? that is Turing-recognizable, at least one of L and L^C is Turing-decidable. Prove the following statement: (d) Let T_1 and T_2 be Turing Machines such that L(T_2)^C ? L(T_1). If, on every input word w, T_1 takes longer to compute than T_2, then L(T_2) is Turing-decidable.

Step 1

Proof: Let $L$ be a language over $\Sigma$. If $L$ is Turing-recognizable, then we are done. If $L$ is not Turing-recognizable, then $L^C$ must be Turing-recognizable. This is because if neither $L$ nor $L^C$ were Turing-recognizable, then their union, which is Show more…

(a) For every language L over Σ at least one of L and L^C is Turing-recognizable. (b) If languages L_1 and L_2 over Σ are both regular with L_1 ⊆ L_2, then a language L that is sandwiched between them, that is L_1 ⊆ L ⊆ L_2 is Turing-recognizable. (c) For every language L over Σ that is Turing-recognizable, at least one of L and L^C is Turing-decidable. Prove the following statement: (d) Let T_1 and T_2 be Turing Machines such that L(T_2)^C ⊆ L(T_1). If, on every input word w, T_1 takes longer to compute than T_2, then L(T_2) is Turing-decidable.
