Mar 10, 2011 at 13:42 comment added Andreas Blass I believe that the result "randomness doesn't help computability" goes back to a 1956 paper, "Computability by probabilistic machines" by K. de Leeuw, E.F. Moore, C.E. Shannon, and N. Shapiro [in "Automata Studies" Princeton Univ. Press, pp. 183-212]. In modern set-theoretic terminology, the result can be phrased as "any ground model real that is recursive relative to a random (over that ground model) real is in fact recursive."
