let IAlph, OAlph be non empty set ; :: thesis: for tfsm being non empty Mealy-FSM of IAlph,OAlph
for qa, qb, qc being State of tfsm
for k being Nat st k -equivalent qa,qb & k -equivalent qb,qc holds
k -equivalent qa,qc
let tfsm be non empty Mealy-FSM of IAlph,OAlph; :: thesis: for qa, qb, qc being State of tfsm
for k being Nat st k -equivalent qa,qb & k -equivalent qb,qc holds

k -equivalent qa,qc
let k be Nat; :: thesis: ( k -equivalent qa,qb & k -equivalent qb,qc implies k -equivalent qa,qc )
assume that
A1: k -equivalent qa,qb and
A2: k -equivalent qb,qc ; :: thesis: k -equivalent qa,qc
thus k -equivalent qa,qc :: thesis: verum

proof

let w be FinSequence of IAlph; :: according to FSM_1:def 11 :: thesis: ( len w <= k implies qa,w -response = qc,w -response )
assume A3: len w <= k ; :: thesis: qa,w -response = qc,w -response
then qa,w -response = qb,w -response by A1, Def11;
hence qa,w -response = qc,w -response by A2, A3, Def11; :: thesis: verum
