I am working on providing an academic quality definition of this

The definition in Wikipedia is good enough.
I think he means, he is working on a definition that redefines the
field to allow him to claim what he wants.
Here one can claim whatever one wants anysay.
In if one wants to present ones claims on some significant forum then
it is better to stick to usual definitions as much as possible.
Sort of like his new definition of H as an "unconventional" machine
that some how both returns an answer but also keeps on running.
There are systems where that is possible but unsolvable problems are
unsolvable even in those systems.
When Ĥ is applied to ⟨Ĥ⟩
Ĥ.q0 ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⊢* embedded_H ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⊢* Ĥ.qy ∞
Ĥ.q0 ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⊢* embedded_H ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⊢* Ĥ.qn
embedded_H is an actual UTM that has the extra feature of watching
every state transition of its simulated input so that it detects
the non-halting behavior pattern that we can all see.
Execution trace of Ĥ applied to ⟨Ĥ⟩
(a) Ĥ.q0 The input ⟨Ĥ⟩ is copied then transitions to embedded_H
(b) embedded_H applied ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⟨Ĥ⟩ (input and copy) simulates ⟨Ĥ⟩ applied to
⟨Ĥ⟩
(c) which begins at its own simulated ⟨Ĥ.q0⟩ to repeat the process
Simulation invariant: ⟨Ĥ⟩ correctly simulated by embedded_H never reaches its own simulated final state of ⟨Ĥ.qn⟩.
(1) The directly executed embedded_H ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⟨Ĥ⟩ transitions to its own internal state of embedded_H.qn indicating that the correct and
complete simulation of its input never halts. It never reaches Ĥ.qn.
(2) embedded_H continues to simulate its input after it transitions
to this internal state.
(3) Each simulated embedded_H does the same thing.
embedded_H is not a halt decider or a partial halt decider
because all deciders are required to halt. embedded_H is
not even a conventional termination analyzer for this same
reason. None-the-less embedded_H does derive the correct
halt status of its conventional HP input.
