Abstract: We introduce notions of continuous strong Weihrauch reducibility and of continuous Weihrauch reducibility for functions with range in a preordered set. Then we associate with such functions certain labeled forests and trees and show that Wadge reducibility, continuous strong Weihrauch reducibility and continuous Weihrauch reducibility between such functions can be characterized by suitable reducibility relations between the associated forests when they are defined. This leads to a combinatorial description of the initial segments of these three hierarchies for those functions defined on the Baire space that have countable range in a bqo set and that are Σ20-measurable with respect to the reverse Alexandroff topology on the bqo set. Furthermore, we show that the characterization of the topological reducibility relations for bqo-valued functions can be used in order to obtain a similar characterization for the usual Wadge reducibility relation, the continuous strong Weihrauch reducibility relation, and the continuous Weihrauch reducibility relation for multi-valued functions with finite range.
