The Fastest and Shortest Algorithm for All Well-Defined Problems
· An algorithm M is described that solves any well-defined problem
p as quickly as the fastest algorithm computing a solution to
p, save for a factor of 5 and low-order additive terms. M
optimally distributes resources between the execution of provably
correct p-solving programs and an enumeration of all proofs,
including relevant proofs of program correctness and of time
bounds on program runtimes. M avoids Blum’s speed-up theorem by
ignoring programs without correctness proof. M has broader
applicability and can be faster than Levin’s universal search, the
fastest method for inverting functions save for a large
multiplicative constant. An extension of Kolmogorov complexity and
two novel natural measures of function complexity are used to show
that the most efficient program computing some function f is
also among the shortest programs provably computing f. · Shared by 1, including 瑞拿頭
