The Computational Power of Infinite Time Blum–Shub–Smale Machines

  • Published:
Algebra and Logic Aims and scope

Functions that are computable on infinite time Blum–Shub–Smale machines (ITBM) are characterized via iterated Turing jumps, and we propose a normal form for these functions. It is also proved that the set of ITBM computable reals coincides with ℝ∩L ωω.
