Arslanovs’ completeness criteria and linear reducibility

Abstract

In 1977, M.M. Arslanov established a completeness criterion for computably enumerable sets in terms of fixed-point-free functions. Later, in 1989–2022, he generalized the criterion to all natural algorithmic table-type reducibilities, except for linear reducibility, where the question remained open. In our work, we answer this question and prove that Arslanov’s completeness criterion for linear reducibility in terms of fixed-point-free functions does not hold.
