  • Abstract
    Recent work has shown that it is useful to consider new variants of time-bounded Kolmogorov complexity. The author reviews that work, presents the new definitions, and studies the basic properties of these measures. He deals with the function KL, which measures the complexity of the simplest strings in the language L and with sets of the form KUv[s(n ),t(n)], which consists of strings with unique short descriptions
