In [[computability theory]], the '''Turing jump''' or '''Turing jump operator''', named for [[Alan Turing]], is an operation that assigns to each [[decision problem]] {{math|''X''}} a successively harder decision problem {{math|''X'' &prime;}} with the property that {{math|''X'' &prime;}} is not decidable by an [[oracle machine]] with an [[oracle (computer science)|oracle]] for {{math|''X''}}.

The operator is called a ''jump operator'' because it increases the [[Turing degree]] of the problem {{math|''X''}}. That is, the problem {{math|''X'' &prime;}} is not [[Turing reducible]] to {{math|''X''}}. [[Post's theorem]] establishes a relationship between the Turing jump operator and the [[arithmetical hierarchy]] of sets of natural numbers. Informally, given a problem, the Turing jump returns the set of Turing machines which halt when given access to an oracle that solves that problem.
 
== Definition ==
 
Given a set {{math|''X''}} and a [[Gödel numbering]] {{math|φ<sub>''i''</sub><sup>''X''</sup>}} of the [[relative computability|{{math|''X''}}-computable]] functions, the '''Turing jump''' {{math|''X'' &prime;}} of {{math|''X''}} is defined as
 
:<math>X'= \{x \mid \varphi_x^X(x) \ \mbox{is defined} \}.</math>
 
The '''{{math|''n''}}th Turing jump''' {{math|''X''<sup>(''n'')</sup>}} is defined inductively by
:<math>X^{(0)} = X, \,</math>
:<math>X^{(n+1)}=(X^{(n)})'. \,</math>
 
The '''{{math|ω}} jump''' {{math|''X''<sup>(ω)</sup>}} of {{math|''X''}} is the [[effective join]] of the sequence of sets {{math|''X''<sup>(''n'')</sup>}} for {{math|''n'' ∈ '''[[Natural numbers|N]]'''}}: <!-- <math>\langle X^{(n)}\mid n \in \mathbb{N}\rangle</math> -->
 
:<math>X^{(\omega)} = \{p_i^k \mid k \in X^{(i)}\},\,</math>
 
where {{math|''p''<sub>''i''</sub>}} denotes the {{math|''i''}}th prime.
 
The notation {{math|0&prime;}} or {{math|∅&prime;}} is often used for the Turing jump of the empty set. It is read ''zero-jump'' or sometimes ''zero-prime''.
 
Similarly, {{math|0<sup>(''n'')</sup>}} is the {{math|''n''}}th jump of the empty set. For finite {{math|''n''}}, these sets are closely related to the [[arithmetic hierarchy]]. 
 
The jump can be iterated into transfinite ordinals: the sets {{math|0<sup>(α)</sup>}} for {{math|α &lt; ω<sub>1</sub><sup>CK</sup>}}, where {{math|ω<sub>1</sub><sup>CK</sup>}} is the [[Church-Kleene ordinal]], are closely related to the [[hyperarithmetic hierarchy]].  Beyond {{math|ω<sub>1</sub><sup>CK</sup>}}, the process can be continued through the countable ordinals of the [[constructible universe]], using set-theoretic methods (Hodes 1980).  The concept has also been generalized to extend to uncountable [[regular cardinal]]s (Lubarsky 1987).
 
== Examples ==
 
* The Turing jump {{math|0&prime;}} of the empty set is Turing equivalent to the [[halting problem]].
* For each {{math|''n''}}, the set {{math|0<sup>(''n'')</sup>}} is [[m-complete]] at level <math>\Sigma^0_n</math> in the [[arithmetical hierarchy]].
* The set of Gödel numbers of true formulas in the language of [[Peano arithmetic]] with a predicate for {{math|''X''}} is computable from {{math|''X''<sup>(ω)</sup>}}.
 
== Properties ==
 
* {{math|''X'' &prime;}} is {{math|''X''}}-[[computably enumerable]] but not {{math|''X''}}-[[computable function|computable]].
* If {{math|''A''}} is [[Turing degree|Turing equivalent]] to {{math|''B''}} then {{math|''A''&prime;}} is Turing equivalent to {{math|''B''&prime;}}.  The converse of this implication is not true.
* ([[Richard Shore|Shore]] and [[Theodore Slaman|Slaman]], 1999) The function mapping {{math|''X''}} to {{math|''X'' &prime;}} is definable in the partial order of the Turing degrees.
 
Many properties of the Turing jump operator are discussed in the article on [[Turing degree]]s.
