TITLE: Martin-Löf randomness relative to a $\Delta^0_2$-representation of a real
QUESTION [8 upvotes]: I have a question which I already asked on a more specialized site (http://logicblogfrontend.hoelzl.fr/), but perhaps M.O. will allow me to reach a wider range of experts. 
Suppose that $X$ is Martin-Löf random, and $Y$ is some real. Must there be a sequence $R$ of rationals converging to $Y$ such that $X$ is random relative to $R$ (coded as a single real)?
Some preliminary comments:

Of course the question is only interesting when $X$ is not random relative to $Y$, otherwise take $R$ to be a fast Cauchy sequence for $Y$.
One cannot require the sequence $R$ to be non-decreasing. For example, if $X=\Omega$ (Chaitin's constant) and $Y=1-\Omega$, then any non-decreasing sequence of rational converging to $Y$ in fact computes $Y$ and thus derandomizes $X$. 
If the answer to the question is `yes', a weak consequence would be that for every random $X$, there is a high set $R$ such that $X$ is $R$-random (indeed, taking $Y=\emptyset''$, any approximation $R$ of $Y$ is such that $R' \geq_T Y = \emptyset''$, hence is high). Is it even known whether this simpler fact is true?

REPLY [5 votes]: Frank came up a quite short negative answer:
Let $x=\Omega\oplus \Omega^{\Omega}$ and $z$ is low for $x$. Then by van-Lambalgen's theorem relativized to $z$, $\Omega^{\Omega}$ is $\Omega\oplus z$-random. So $0''\equiv_T x\not\leq_T \Omega\oplus z\equiv_T 0'\oplus z$.
