N2 - We construct a universal reversible Turing machine (URTM) from first principles. We take a strict approach to the semantics of reversible Turing machines (RTMs), under which they can compute exactly all injective, computable functions, but not non-injective ones.

The interpretive overhead of the URTM is limited to a (program dependent) constant factor slowdown, with no other complexity-wise cost wrt time and space.
