Abstract

We complete a study of the splitting/non-splitting properties of the enumeration degrees below 0e by proving an analog of Harrington’s non-splitting theorem for the Σ20 enumeration degrees. We show how non-splitting techniques known from the study of the c.e. Turing degrees can be adapted to the enumeration degrees.
