Reductions
A reduction from problem 𝐴𝐴 to problem 𝐵𝐵 is an algorithm for problem 𝐴𝐴 which uses an algorithm for problem 𝐵𝐵 as a subroutine
If such a reduction exists, we say “𝐴𝐴 reduces to 𝐵𝐵”

Reminder: Using reductions to prove undecidability
If 𝐴𝐴 reduces to 𝐵𝐵 and 𝐴𝐴 is undecidable, then 𝐵𝐵 is also undecidable
Suppose to the contrary that 𝐵𝐵 is decidable Using 𝐵𝐵 as a subroutine, construct an algorithm

What’s wrong with the following “proof”?
Bogus “Theorem”: 𝐴𝐴 is not Turing-recognizable

. We construct a recognizer for 𝐴𝐴 1. Run 𝑅𝑅 on input 𝑀𝑀,𝑤𝑤
Bogus “Proof”: Suppose for contradiction that there exists a

Oninput 𝑀𝑀,𝑤𝑤:
This sure looks like a reduction from 𝐴𝐴TM to 𝐴𝐴TM 3/24/2020 CS332 – Theory of Computation 11

Mapping Reductions: Motivation
1. How do we formalize the notion of a reduction?
2. How do we use reductions to show that languages are unrecognizable?
3. How do we protect ourselves from accidentally “proving” bogus theorems about recognizability?

Computable Functions
A function 𝑓𝑓: Σ∗ → Σ∗ is computable if there is a TM 𝑀𝑀 which, given as input any 𝑤𝑤 ∈ Σ∗, halts with only 𝑓𝑓(𝑤𝑤) on its tape.
Definition:
Example1:𝑓𝑓 𝑥𝑥,𝑦𝑦 =𝑥𝑥+𝑦𝑦
Example2:𝑓𝑓 𝑀𝑀,𝑤𝑤 = 𝑀𝑀′ where𝑀𝑀isaTM,𝑤𝑤isa string, and 𝑀𝑀𝑀 is a TM that ignores its input and simulates running 𝑀𝑀 on 𝑤𝑤

Mapping Reductions
Definition:
Language 𝐴𝐴 is mapping reducible to language 𝐵𝐵, written
𝐴𝐴 ≤m 𝐵𝐵
if there is a computable function 𝑓𝑓: Σ∗ → Σ∗ such that for
all strings 𝑤𝑤 ∈ Σ∗, we have 𝑤𝑤 ∈ 𝐴𝐴 ⟺ 𝑓𝑓(𝑤𝑤) ∈ 𝐵𝐵

Consequences of 𝐴𝐴TM ≤m 𝐸𝐸𝐸𝐸TM
1. Since 𝐴𝐴TM is undecidable, 𝐸𝐸𝐸𝐸TM is also undecidable
