The transitivity problem of Turing machines
Résumé
A Turing machine is topologically transitive if every partial configuration — that is a state, a head position, plus a finite portion of the tape — can reach any other partial configuration, provided that it is completed into a proper configuration. We characterize topological transitivity and study its computational complexity in the dynamical system models of Turing machines with moving head, moving tape and for the trace-shift. We further study minimality, the property of every configuration reaching every partial configuration.
