Ackermann Functions and Transfinite Ordinals

by K. K. Nambiar - Applied Mathematics Letters , 1995
"... Abstract—A set of binary operators are defined and shown to be equivalent to Ackermann func-tions. The same set of operators are used to develop a notation for writing the sequence of transfinite ordinals. ..."

Ackermann functions of complex argument

by D. Kouznetsov , 2008
"... Existence of analytic extension of the fourth Ackermann function A(4, z) to the complex z plane is supposed. This extension is assumed to remain finite at the imaginary axis. On the base of this assumption, the algorithm is suggested for evaluation of this function. The numerical implementation with ..."

The Ackermann functions are not optimal, but by how much

"... By taking a closer look at the construction of an Ackermann function we see that between any primitive recursive degree and its Ackermann modification there is a dense chain of primitive recursive degrees. ..."

The American Mathematical Monthly Unsolved Problems: A mod-n Ackermann Function, or What's So Special about 1969?

by Jon Froemke, Jerrold W. Grossman
"... computable), but it grows too fast to be primitive recursive (i.e., computable without using dirty tricks like double recursion or the operator \the least n such that"). A kind of inverse for this function (which grows excruciatingly slowly|it makes something like log(log(n)) look like the U.S. ..."

.S. national debt by comparison) enters into the e±ciency analysis of some important algorithms, such as keeping track of the components of a graph as new edges are added. If we restrict the range of the Ackermann function to a ¯nite set (with a suitable \mod"-i¯cation of its de¯nition), then we might

Ackermann and the Superpowers

by António Porto, Armando B. Matos, O B. Matos , 1995
"... Introduction and denitions The \arrow" or \superpower" notation has been introduced by Knuth [1] as a convenient way of expressing very large numbers. It is based on the innite sequence of operators: +; ; "; We shall see that the arrow notation is closely related to the Ackermann ..."

Efficiency of a Good But Not Linear Set Union Algorithm

by Robert Endre Tarjan , 1975
"... Two types of instructmns for mampulating a family of disjoint sets which partitmn a umverse of n elements are considered FIND(x) computes the name of the (unique) set containing element x UNION(A, B, C) combines sets A and B into a new set named C. A known algorithm for implementing sequences of the ..."

of these mstructmns is examined It is shown that, if t(m, n) as the maximum time reqmred by a sequence of m> n FINDs and n-- 1 intermixed UNIONs, then kima(m, n) _~ t(m, n) < k:ma(m, n) for some positive constants ki and k2, where a(m, n) is related to a functional inverse of Ackermann's functmn

Optimizing Ackermann's Function by Incrementalization

by Yanhong A. Liu, Scott D. Stoller , 2001
"... This paper describes a formal derivation of an optimized Ackermann's function following a general and systematic method based on incrementalization. The method identifies an appropriate input increment operation and computes the function by repeatedly performing an incremental computation at th ..."

Sensitivity Analysis of Minimum Spanning Trees in Sub-Inverse-Ackermann Time

by Seth Pettie , 2015
"... We present a deterministic algorithm for computing the sensitivity of a minimum spanning tree (MST) or shortest path tree in O(m logα(m,n)) time, where α is the inverse-Ackermann function. This improves upon a long standing bound of O(mα(m,n)) established by Tarjan. Our algo-rithms are based on an e ..."

ACKERMANN’S FUNCTION AND NEW ARITHMETICAL OPERATIONS

by unknown authors
"... Abstract. Ackermann’s function implies the existence of an infinite spectrum of new arithmetical operations (hyperoperations) belonging to the Grzegorczyk Hierarchy. Two of these hyperoperations, tetration and zeration, together with their inverses are given special attention. Tetration (power tower ..."
