The Skolem Problem in rings of positive characteristic
Ruiwen Dong, Doron Shafrir
We show that the Skolem Problem is decidable in finitely generated commutative rings of positive characteristic. More precisely, we show that there exists an algorithm which, given…
The Identity Problem in the special affine group of
Ruiwen Dong
We consider semigroup algorithmic problems in the Special Affine group , which is the group of affine…
S-unit equations in modules and linear-exponential Diophantine equations
Ruiwen Dong, Doron Shafrir
Let be a positive integer, and be a finitely presented module over the Laurent polynomial ring . We consider S-unit…
Submonoid Membership in n-dimensional lamplighter groups and S-unit equations
Ruiwen Dong
We show that Submonoid Membership is decidable in n-dimensional lamplighter groups for any prime and integer . More generally, we…
The Identity Problem in virtually solvable matrix groups over algebraic numbers
Corentin Bodart, Ruiwen Dong
The Tits alternative states that a finitely generated matrix group either contains a nonabelian free subgroup , or it is virtually solvable. This paper considers two decision…
