Premier ouvrage de l’histoire de la philosophie à être totalement consacré au concept d’entéléchie, il ne s’agira pas de proposer un essai historique allant de la mise en place de cette notion chez Aristote jusqu’à la conception... more

In this article, we will show that uncomputability is a relative property not only of oracle Turing machines, but also of subrecursive classes. We will define the concept of a Turing submachine, and a recursive... more

Metabiology is a mathematical theory mainly based on algorithmic information theory and allows us to study an open-ended evolution of programs, that is, to study how fast the organisms/programs become more complex or more creative without... more

Podemos chamar o famoso “paradoxo” de Skolem de um pseudoparadoxo metalinguístico da denumerabilidade: de dentro do sistema um conjunto não é enumerável enquanto que de fora do sistema ele pode ser. O mesmo fenômeno aparece em relação à... more

      Computability TheoryAlgorithmic Information TheorySemantic ParadoxesThe Concept of Computability
We show that metabiology is not restricted to the study of the evolution of programs or the evolution of computable systems. Inspired by the concept of hyper-computation, that is, by the idea of programs having access to a Turing oracle,... more
