Title of TalkDifferentiation of Functions on the Cantor Space and Connections to Real-Valued Functions
AbstractThe notion of online functions of the Cantor space $2^{\mathbb{N}}$, and more generally, of continuous and of computable functions on $2^{\mathbb{N}}$, have been studied recently in connection with algorithmic randomness. In this talk, we present a notion of the derivative of functions on $2^{\mathbb{N}}$, and we establish some connections between functions and their derivatives on $2^{\mathbb{N}}$ and on $\mathbb{R}$, where we can represent real-valued functions as functions acting on the dyadic representation of real numbers. This is joint work with Douglas Cenzer.
