Logic, Language, Information and Computation

We discuss the formalization, in the Matita Theorem Prover, of a few, basic results on Turing Machines, up to the existence of a (certified) Universal Machine. The work is meant to be a preliminary step towards the creation of a formal repository in Complexity Theory, and is a small piece in our Reverse Complexity program, aiming to a comfortable, machine independent axiomatization of the field.
