Original question and givens
Use the complete finite epsilon-NFA: states=[s3, m3, f3, d3], alphabet=[a3, b3], start=s3, final_states=[f3], transitions=[[s3, null, m3], [s3, null, d3], [m3, a3, m3], [m3, b3, f3]]. Transitions are [from,input symbol or null,to]; null is epsilon and consumes no input. States are nonempty because the start belongs to them, but alphabet/final sets and the transition relation may be empty. The relation may be multivalued, not deterministic or total. A configuration is [state,input position]; acceptance requires one finite path consuming the entire input and ending final. Seed states=[s3]. Give (seed_states, epsilon_closure, closure_certificate, certificate).
