Abstract

By a theorem of Sacks, if a real \(x\) is recursive relative to all elements of a set of positive Lebesgue measure, \(x\) is recursive. This statement - and the analogous statement for non-meagerness instead of positive Lebesgue measure - has been shown to carry over to many models of transfinite computations in [7]. Here, we start exploring another analogue concerning recognizability rather than computability. We show that, for Infinite Time Register Machines (\(ITRM\)s), if a real \(x\) is recognizable relative to all elements of a non-meager Borel set \(Y\), then \(x\) is recognizable.
