Original question and givens

Use complete epsilon-NFA states=[s18, m18, f18, e118, e218, d18], alphabet=[a18, b18], start=s18, final_states=[f18], transitions=[[s18, null, m18], [s18, null, d18], [m18, a18, m18], [m18, b18, f18], [f18, null, e118], [e118, null, e218]]. Each transition is [from,input symbol or null,to], with null consuming no input. States/labels and transitions must qualify, and subsets are unique carrier subsets sorted lexicographically. Empty alphabet/final sets and empty subset states are allowed. Give (NFA_start, DFA_start_subset, epsilon_closed_certificate, certificate).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source operation=subsetdfa-epsilon-start;original snapshot and mathematics retained

After

explicit ordered source output fields=[NFA_start, DFA_start_subset, epsilon_closed_certificate, certificate]

Conditions: none

Keep the source snapshot while listing ordered fields without JavaScript.Radius uses its original mode to select6 or11 fields without padding;distinguish nonclaims from actual negations.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: source_ordered_interface_explicit_without_javascript · Uses: G001

S002 · implies

Before

ORIGINAL states=[s18, m18, f18, e118, e218, d18],alphabet=[a18, b18],start=s18;ORIGINAL transition order=[[s18, null, m18], [s18, null, d18], [m18, a18, m18], [m18, b18, f18], [f18, null, e118], [e118, null, e218]]

After

final set normalized UTF16=[f18];states nonempty,alphabet/finals/relation MAYEMPTY;DUPLICATE triples rejected in THIS model

Conditions: none

This model differs from the earlier NFA node:transition triples are unique and finals are sorted.Subsets must be actual carrier subsets;do not import old duplicate/final-order conventions.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: subsetdfa_qualified_NFA_signature_DUPLICATE_edges_REJECTED_here · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · implies

Before

Subset DFA ORIGINAL start:stage=0;seed set=[s18];previous set=[s18]

After

ALL [ORIGINAL edge index,from,to,enabled] EPS rows=[[0, s18, m18, Yes], [1, s18, d18, Yes], [4, f18, e118, No], [5, e118, e218, No]];next set=[d18, m18, s18];stable=No

Conditions: none

Each addition has a finite EPS predecessor path;every EPS-closed seed superset contains each stage.Finiteness gives the complete least closure,without consuming input.

Reverse checks

  • S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

(s18, [d18, m18, s18], Yes, DFA_start_is_epsilon_closure_of_the_NFA_start_singleton)

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
