Original question and givens

Use deterministic single-tape states=[q02, q12, qa2, qr2], input_alphabet=[02], tape_alphabet=[02, X2, _2], blank=_2, start=q02, accept=qa2, reject=qr2, transitions=[[q02, 02, q12, X2, R], [q02, _2, qr2, _2, S], [q12, _2, qa2, _2, L]]. Each transition is [state,read,next,write,L/R/S]; keys [state,read] are unique and halting states have no outgoing transitions. Input symbols form a blank-free tape subset. The integer-indexed tape is blank at every unlisted cell, with configuration [state,head,sparse nonblank tape]; L may move left of0. Canonical answer transitions/tape cells retain the source sort convention. Input=[02], step budget=2. Give (input, step_budget, configurations, step_outcomes, final_state, local_outcome, global_decider_certificate, boundary).

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 roles = [tm-exact-step-trace]

After

derived = [[input, step_budget, configurations, step_outcomes, final_state, local_outcome, global_decider_certificate, boundary]]

Conditions: none

List the full source field order without JavaScript,keeping original data,Boolean flags,mathematical objects and nonclaims distinct.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: source_ordered_fields_without_JS · Uses: G001

S002 · implies

Before

source roles = [[q02, q12, qa2, qr2], [02], [02, X2, _2], _2, q02, qa2, qr2, [[q02, 02, q12, X2, R], [q02, _2, qr2, _2, S], [q12, _2, qa2, _2, L]]]

After

derived = [[q02, q12, qa2, qr2], [02], [02, X2, _2], [[q02, _2, qr2, _2, S], [q02, 02, q12, X2, R], [q12, _2, qa2, _2, L]], Yes]

Conditions: none

All three lists are nonempty and unique;input is a blank-free tape subset,but state and alphabet labels may overlap.Source NUL-joined(from,read) keys are unique,and halting states have no outgoing rules.A partial table is legal,not filled with rejection;transition collation and UTF16 set order differ.

S003 · implies

Before

source roles = [[02], q02, _2]

After

derived = [[q02, 0, [[0, 02]]]]

Conditions: none

Initially head0,input occupies integer cells from0,and every other cell is blank.The sparse record contains nonblank cells only;negative indices are legal.

Conditions: none

Only actual halting states accept or reject.Exhaustion or stuck is neither ordinary rejection nor a proof of infinite running.One finite input trace supplies no all-input decider certificate.

Reverse checks

  • S008 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S007 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S006 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute TM exact integer head move1 with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

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