Get started for freeIn the fixed-point version of the recursion theorem (Theorem 6.8), let the transformation t be a function that interchanges the states and in Turing machine descriptions. Give an example of a fixed point for t.
Rice’s theorem. Let P be any nontrivial property of the language of a Turing machine. Prove that the problem of determining whether a given Turing machine’s language has property P is undecidable. In more formal terms, let P be a language consisting of Turing machine descriptions where P fulfils two conditions. First, P is nontrivial—it contains some, but not all, TM descriptions. Second, P is a property of the TM’s language—whenever , we have if and only iff . Here, and are any TMs. Prove that P is an undecidable language.
