Encodings

This file contains the definition of a (finite) encoding, a map from a type to strings in an alphabet, used in defining computability by Turing machines. It also contains several examples:

Examples

• finEncodingNatBool : a binary encoding of ℕ in a simple alphabet.
• finEncodingNatΓ' : a binary encoding of ℕ in the alphabet used for TM's.
• unaryFinEncodingNat : a unary encoding of ℕ
• finEncodingBoolBool : an encoding of bool.

structure Computability.Encoding (α : Type u) : Type (max u (v + 1))

An encoding of a type in a certain alphabet, together with a decoding.

• Γ : Type v

  The alphabet of the encoding

• encode : α → List self.Γ

  The encoding function

• decode : List self.Γ → Option α

  The decoding function

• decode_encode (x : α) : self.decode (self.encode x) = some x

  Decoding and encoding are inverses of each other.

theorem Computability.Encoding.encode_injective {α : Type u} (e : Encoding α) : Function.Injective e.encode

structure Computability.FinEncoding (α : Type u) extends Computability.Encoding α : Type (max 1 u)

An encoding plus a guarantee of finiteness of the alphabet.

• Γ : Type
• encode : α → List self.Γ
• decode : List self.Γ → Option α
• decode_encode (x : α) : self.decode (self.encode x) = some x
• ΓFin : Fintype self.Γ

  The alphabet of the encoding is finite

inductive Computability.Γ' : Type

A standard Turing machine alphabet, consisting of blank,bit0,bit1,bra,ket,comma.

• blank : Γ'
• bit (b : Bool) : Γ'
• bra : Γ'
• ket : Γ'
• comma : Γ'
