Languages beyond enumerable
Yes, for starters there is the arithmetical hierarchy, where enumerable = $\Sigma^0_1$ and it continues $\Pi^0_1$, $\Delta^0_2$, $\Sigma^0_2$ etc.
See also the Computability Menagerie.

Unpublished result of Rosser in Sieve Methods book
Erdős and Selfridge (1971) state that the following is "implied by an unpublished result of Rosser" which they claim appears in a forthcoming book on sieve methods by Halberstam and Richert.
I guess I …

History of the Jaccard distance $d(A,B) = \mathbb P(\overline A\cup\overline B\mid A\cup B)$
I'm wondering where the relative probabilistic distance or Jaccard distance was first studied:
$$d(A,B) =\mathbb P(\overline A\cup\overline B\mid A\cup B)$$
where $\overline A$ is the complement of $A …

Usual technical term for replacing a set by the set of singletons of its members?
$A'$ is the discrete partition of $A$.
That is, we think of it as a partition of $A$ induced by the finest equivalence relation, the identity relation.

Generalising the union-closed sets conjecture from lattice to a larger class of posets
Here is a counterexample of size 23.
Let $m=6$ and let $$P=\{0,a_1,\dots,a_m,1\}\cup\{b_{ij}: 1\le i<j\le m\}$$
where $0<a_i<b_{jk}<1$ whenever $i$ is distinct from $j$ and $k$.
The cardinality of $P$ …

What about $n^{\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}}+n^{\frac{1}{y}+\frac{1}{z}}=n^{\frac{1}{z}+\frac{1}{...
Question 1: Inspired by the ones you found we can see that there are infinitely many solutions as follows:
$$(x,y,z;n) = (k-1,\quad k(k-1),\quad k-1;\quad 2^k)$$
for any $k\ge 0$.
Edit re: Question 2 …

Is Van der Waerden's function elementary
Yes, this should follow from the elementary bound. The point is that having a Kalmar elementary time bound is "closed under" searches through exponentially large collections.
Suppose $N=W(r,k)$ is lea …

Define Turing machine with algebraic concepts/structures
Yes, there is now Pavlovic's characterization of Turing computability in terms of the monoidal computer, based on monoidal categories. http://arxiv.org/abs/1208.5205

Complexity of Turing Machine behavior
If you restrict attention to TMs that always halt, then:
One measure of complexity of a Turing machine is its running time, the maximum number of steps taken before it halts on inputs of length $n$, …

Is there literature on finite geometries with ordered lines?
Yes, this has been studied and is indeed known as ordered geometry or the study of betweenness spaces:

Who proved "sets in every generic are already in the ground model?"
Here is the computability-theoretic version: Suppose $G=G_0\oplus G_1$ is 1-generic and suppose $X$ is computable from both: so $X=\Phi_1^{G_0}=\Phi_2^{G_1}$. Then also $X=\Phi^{G_0}=\Phi^{G_1}$ where …
