On the topological aspects of the theory of represented spaces

TL;DR: The theory of represented spaces is well-known to exhibit a strong topological flavour as discussed by the authors, and it is a general setting for the study of computability derived from Turing machines, as such they are the basic entities for endeavors such as computable analysis or computable measure theory.

On Location and Approximation of Clusters of Zeros: Case of Embedding Dimension One

TL;DR: This paper provides a criterion for locating clusters of zeros and a fast algorithm for approximating them, with quadratic convergence, in situations where the analytic map has corank one at the multiple isolated zero, which has embedding dimension one in the frame of deformation theory.

Classical physics and the Church--Turing Thesis

TL;DR: In this article, it is observed that there is fundamental tension between the Extended Church--Turing Thesis and the existence of numerous seemingly intractable computational problems arising from classical physics.

The complexity of theorem-proving procedures

TL;DR: It is shown that any recognition problem solved by a polynomial time-bounded nondeterministic Turing machine can be “reduced” to the problem of determining whether a given propositional formula is a tautology.
