Abstract

 
 
 Some philosophical problems can be analyzed by creating mathematical analogues which can be analyzed more rigorously. Even when different classes of causation are theoretically capable of producing the same results, a combination of information theory and probability theory can be used to analyze the relative probabilities of each class of cause. In this case, the halting problem is leveraged to show that certain classes of causes are more likely to produce certain classes of results.
