Dimensionality and Randomness
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Arranging the bits of a random string or real into \( k \) columns of a 2D array or higher dimensional structure is typically accompanied with loss in the Kolmogorov complexity of the columns, which depends on \( k \) . We quantify and characterize this phenomenon for arrays and trees and its relationship to negligible classes.
