I exposit Turing's theory of computability and unsolvability, as subsequently developed by Kleene and Post. Second, I provide an introductory account of a research area which is currently very active: algorithmic randomness and Kolmogorov complexity.

by Dag Normann - The University of Oslo
This text is consisting of two parts, Classical Computability Theory and Generalized Computability Theory. We assume that the reader is familiar with the standard vocabulary of logic and set theory, but no advanced background from logic is required.
