| English Abstract | We study the computably enumerable sets in terms of the: (a) Kolmogorov complexity of their initial segments; (b) Kolmogorov complexity of finite programs when they are used as oracles. We present an extended discussion of the existing research on this topic, along with recent developments and open problems. Besides this survey, our main original result is the following characterization of the computably enumerable sets with trivial initial segment prefix-free complexity. A computably enumerable set A is K-trivial if and only if the family of sets with complexity bounded by the complexity of A is uniformly computable from the halting problem. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.
