In this paper we extend computability theory to the spaces of continuous, upper semi-continuous and lower semi-continuous real functions. We apply the framework of TTE, Type-2 Theory of E ectivity, where not only computable elements but also computable functions on the spaces can be considered. Firs

Abstract
For semi‐continuous real functions we study different computability concepts defined via computability of epigraphs and hypographs. We call a real function f lower semi‐computable of type one, if its open hypograph hypo(f) is recursively enumerably open in dom(f) × ℝ; we call f lower semi‐computable of type two, if its closed epigraph Epi(f) is recursively enumerably closed in dom(f) × ℝ; we call f lower semi‐computable of type three, if Epi(f) is recursively closed in dom(f) × ℝ. We show that type one and type two semi‐computability are independent and that type three semi‐computability plus effectively uniform continuity implies computability, which is false for type one and type two instead of type three. We show also that the integral of a type three semi‐computable real function on a computable interval is not necessarily computable.

This paper presents a construction that computes the topological closure of a rational relation on inÿnite words. Besides showing that the closure is rational itself, it also reduces the question of the continuity and the uniform continuity of a function to the question of the functionality of its c
