Boone William W.,Higman Graham

Abstract

The following theorem is the focal point of the present paper. It stipulates an algebraic condition equivalent, in any finitely generated group, to the solubility of the word problem.THEOREM I. A necessary and sufficient condition that a finitely generated group G have a soluble word problem is that there exist a simple group H, and a finitely presented group K, such that G is a subgroup of H, and H is a subgroup of K.
