Equations of length 4 and one-relator products
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 16 October 2000
Abstract
This paper continues our study started in [5] of the group G defined by the presentation
formula here
where m [ges ] 2, n [ges ] 2 and ∈i = ±1 for 1 [les ] i [les ] 2. The problem under consideration can be stated as: precisely when does both a have order m and b have order n in the group G? This question arose as a result of our investigation into equations over groups and the connection is explained in Section 2.
