Each relation below ends at this concept.
This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

- Authored annotation
- corresponds to a computable input–output map under the Church–Turing thesis
Authored explanation
A terminating or partial algorithm determines a partial function. The assertion that every effective algorithm is captured by Turing computability is the Church–Turing thesis, not a formal theorem.
How to interpret this relation type
Reinterpret an object, pass to an equivalent presentation, or relate canonically corresponding structures; the carrier may change.

- Authored annotation
- computes a partial function
Authored explanation
Each deterministic Turing machine induces a partial function by its input-output behavior; machines that halt on every input compute total functions.
How to interpret this relation type
Apply a standard functorial or canonical construction whose output is not merely a reduct of the input and is not generally an equivalent presentation of the same object.
