Abstract: | We settle a series of questions first raised by Yates at the Jerusalem (1968) Colloquium on Mathematical Logic by characterizing
the initial segments of the degrees of unsolvability of size ℵ1: Every upper semi-lattice of size ℵ1 with zero, in which every element has at most countably many predecessors, is isomorphic to an initial segment of the Turing
degrees.
The second author was partially supported by a grant from the NSF. The research was carried out while he was on sabbatical
leave from Cornell University and a Visiting Professor at the Hebrew University, Jersalem. He would like to thank the Hebrew
University and in particular the logicians there for their hospitality. |
