I am currently trying to prove whether the above language is decidable, partially decidable or fully undecidable. I am certain that this language is partially decidable and reducible to the halting problem. However, I am having trouble actually proving it.

Can anyone assist me with constructing the TM that decides this HALT variant?

What I'm thinking is creating a program that takes M and:

  • if M terminates on w and tape is empty, accept
  • if M terminates on w and tape is not empty, reject
  • if M does not terminate on w, reject
