The computable embedding problem

Calvert calculated the complexity of the computable isomorphism problem for a number of familiar classes of structures. Rosendal suggested that it might be interesting to do the same for the computable embedding problem. By the computable isomorphism problem and (computable embedding problem) we mean the difficulty of determining whether there exists an isomorphism (embedding) between two members of a class of computable structures. For some classes, such as the class of $\mathbb Q$-vector spaces and the class of linear orderings, it turns out that the two problems have the same complexity. Moreover, calculations are essentially the same. For other classes, there are differences. We present examples in which the embedding problem is trivial (within the class) and the computable isomorphism problem is more complicated. We also give an example in which the embedding problem is more complicated than the isomorphism problem.
