The Kolmogorov complexity of random reals
We investigate the initial segment complexity of random reals. Let K( ) denote pre

Reconciling Data Compression and Kolmogorov Complexity
While data compression and Kolmogorov complexity are both about effective coding of words, the two settings differ in the following respect. A compression algorithm or compressor...

The complexity of stochastic sequences
We review and slightly strengthen known results on the Kolmogorov complexity of prefixes of effectively random sequences. First, there are recursively random random sequences su...

Lower Bounds for Randomized and Quantum Query Complexity Using Kolmogorov Arguments
We prove a very general lower bound technique for quantum and randomized query complexity, that is easy to prove as well as to apply. To achieve this, we introduce the use of Kolm...
