| Abstract. Let UTM(m,n) be the class of universal Turing machines with m states and n symbols. It is known that universal Turing machines exist in the following classes: UTM(24,2), UTM(10,3), UTM(7,4), UTM(5,5), UTM(4,6), UTM(3,10), and UTM(2,18). In this paper it is shown that universal Turing machine exists in the class UTM(22,2), so previous result UTM(24,2) is improved. |
