Dec 19, 2022 at 17:13 comment added Oliver Korten @NoahSchweber on second though I’m not sure your claim holds in general. If we have an enumeration reduction E we can use it to generate a recursive list of $(\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_n, \beta)$ where the $\alpha_i,\beta$ are formula, such that whenever all $\alpha_i$ lie in $A$, $\beta$ must lie in $B$ (I think this is what you mean). However this in no way implies that $\bigwedge \alpha_i \vdash \beta$ (I’m using $\vdash$ in the semantic/model theoretic sense) since this implication could be based on some reasoning “beyond” basic FOL deductions.

Dec 19, 2022 at 12:26 comment added Joel David Hamkins Could you clarify whether you are treating theories as sets of sentences, or do they have to be deductively closed? This can affect the Turing degree.

Dec 19, 2022 at 4:25 comment added Oliver Korten Thank you! I was not aware of this notion of “enumeration reduction” and the work i’m seeing on it seems to be highly relevant to the question I’m thinking about.
Dec 19, 2022 at 4:04 comment added Noah Schweber Note that if $B$ is enumeration reducible to $A$, then $B$ is recursively axiomatizable over $A$: the enumeration reduction itself is basically such an axiomatization (think of clauses of the form "$(\bigwedge_{1\le i\le n}\alpha_i)\rightarrow\beta$"). So in examples of this phenomenon - which do exist, if memory serves - rely crucially on the ability of a Turing reduction to use positive and negative facts about the oracle.
