The zero divisor conjecture and Mealy automata
Ievgen Bondarenko, Kate Juschenko · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2024
The zero divisor conjecture is sufficient to prove for certain class of finitely presented groups where the relations are given by a pairing of generators. We associate Mealy automata to such pairings, and prove that the zero divisor conjecture holds for groups corresponding to invertible automata with three states. In particular, there cannot be zero divisors of support three corresponding to invertible pairings.
