In computability theory, a Turing degree [X] is high if it is computable in 0, and the Turing jump [X] is 0, which is the greatest possible degree in terms of Turing reducibility for the jump of a set which is computable in 0.[1]

Similarly, a degree is high n if its n'th jump is the (n+1)'st jump of 0. Even more generally, a degree d is generalized high n if its n'th jump is the n'th jump of the join of d with 0.
