Revision as of 00:25, 8 June 2025

The 7-state, 2-symbol Busy Beaver problem BB(7) is a mostly unexplored domain with only preliminary information.

The current BB(7) champion is 1RB0RA_1LC1LF_1RD0LB_1RA1LE_1RZ0LC_1RG1LD_0RG0RF (bbch) discovered by Pavel Kropitz in 2025 proving the lower bound:

History

Before 2025, the only known BB(7) champions were produced by hand, not by search. Example, Milton Green designed a machine in 1964 that had sigma score 22,961 and Wythagoras modified a BB(6) champion in 2014 to produce a machine that had sigma score .

In May 2025, mxdys shared C++ code that breaks up the BB(7) enumeration into 1 million subtasks which each run for about 2 minutes and leave ~100 holdouts each. Various folks on Discord have been investigating different sections of this domain to search for champions.

Within three days of the code's release, the Ligockis found three champions after applying their deciders to enumerator output. Shawn Ligocki found the first two, 1RB0RF_1LC0RE_1RD1LB_1LA1LD_0RA0LE_1RG0LB_1RZ1RB (bbch) and 1RB1RA_1RC0LC_0LD1LG_1LF0LE_1RZ1LF_0LA1LD_1RA1LC (bbch), with sigma scores of approximately 10 ↑↑ 22 and 10 ↑↑ 35. That evening, Terry Ligocki found 1RB0LG_1RC0RF_1LD1RZ_1LF0LE_1RA1LD_1LG1RE_0LB0LB (bbch), with sigma score ~10 ↑↑ 46. These were all outpaced by Pavel's champion.

Top Halters

Based on limited search through a subset of the 1 million subtasks from mxdys's code, the top 20 scoring known machines are:
