Abstract:In this paper we develop the elements of the theory of algorithmic randomness in continuous-time Markov chains (CTMCs). Our main contribution is a rigorous, useful notion of what it means for an individual trajectory of a CTMC to be random. CTMCs have discrete state spaces and operate in continuous time. This, together with the fact that trajectories may or may not halt, presents challenges not encountered in more conventional developments of algorithmic randomness.Although we formulate algorithmic randomness … Show more
