Abstract
We show that it is possible, for every machine universal for Kolmogorov complexity, to enumerate the lexicographically least description of a length n string in O(n) attempts. In contrast to this positive result for strings, we find that, in any Kolmogorov numbering, no enumerator of nontrivial size can generate a list containing the minimal index of a given partial-computable function. One cannot even achieve a laconic enumerator for nearly-minimal indices of partial-computable functions.
