Is the set of generalized Fermat triples computable?
Is $\;\big\{(a,b,c)\in\mathbb{N}^3: \big(\exists m,n,\ell \in (\mathbb{N}\setminus\{0,1,2\})\big): a^m + b^n= c^\ell\big\}\;$ computable?

Normal $0,1$-sequence with infinitely many frequent finite substrings
Let $\mathbb{N}$ denote the set of non-negative integers. We can identify every bitstream, i.e. a function $s:\mathbb{N}\to \{0,1\}$, with some $A\in{\cal P}(\mathbb{N})$: take $A = s^{-1}(\{1\})$.

Computationally random bitstreams and normalcy
Let $\mathbb{N}$ denote the set of non-negative integers. We can identify every bitstream, i.e. a function $s:\mathbb{N}\to \{0,1\}$, with some $A\in{\cal P}(\mathbb{N})$: take $A = s^{-1}(\{1\})$.

Decidability of matrix problem in ${\mathbb Z}/p{\mathbb Z}$
Let $p$ be a prime number, $n$ be a positive integer, and let ${\mathbb Z}_p^{n\times n}$ denote the set of $n\times n$-matrices over ${\mathbb Z}/p{\mathbb Z}$.
Suppose we are given an integer $m>...

Problem to a solution
Consider an NP hard problem $\frak P$ which takes an input of length n
$\frak P$ can be solved partially by a factor $ p_i = p(n,i)\in$ [0,1)... by a polynomial time algorithm $\mathcal A(i)$ ...

Why is every finite set Diophantine? [closed]
I understand that every finite set is recursively enumerable, as I see that one could just encode each element of some finite set on a Turing Machines tape, and then have the machine check each member ...
