Mathematical Equivalence Model:

Computational Equivalence Theorem:
∀C ∈ Computations, ∀I ∈ Inputs, ∀Env ∈ Environments:
    Cloud_Execute(C, I, Env_cloud) ≡_semantic ZeroState_Execute(T(C), T(I), Env_zerostate)

Where:
- T: CloudSpace → ZeroStateSpace (Transformation function)
- ≡_semantic denotes semantic equivalence
- T preserves all computational properties

Transformation Properties:
1. Homomorphism: T(f(x, y)) = T_f(T(x), T(y)) for all operations f
2. Preservation: ∀property P: P(cloud_result) ⟺ P(T⁻¹(zerostate_result))
3. Invertibility: T⁻¹(T(x)) = x for all x in domain
4. Performance: Performance_ZeroState(T(C)) ≥ α × Performance_Cloud(C) where α ≥ 0.95

State Space Equivalence:
StateSpace_Cloud ≅ StateSpace_ZeroState via isomorphism Φ
Where Φ: CloudState → ZeroStateState satisfies:
- Φ(s₁ ⊕ s₂) = Φ(s₁) ⊕ Φ(s₂) (Operation preservation)
- Φ(transition(s)) = transition(Φ(s)) (Transition preservation)
- |Φ(s)| ≤ (1 + ε)|s| where ε ≤ 0.05 (Space efficiency)

Correctness Invariant:
∀computation C, ∀architecture_mode M ∈ {Cloud, ZeroState}:
    Execute(C, M) satisfies:
    - Functional_Correctness(result)
    - Security_Properties_Preserved(result) 
    - Performance_Requirements_Met(result)
    - Resource_Constraints_Satisfied(result)
