Abstract

We describe Wadge degrees of ù-languages recognizable by deterministic Turing machines. In particular, it is shown that the ordinal corresponding to these degrees is ξω where ξ = ωCK 1is the first non-recursive ordinal known as the Church-Kleene ordinal. This answers a question raised in [Du0?].
