Abstract
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the computability of group constructions. The chapter also discusses relative Grzegorczyk hierarchy and free products with amalgamation. A free product with amalgamation is a useful construction when dealing with decision problems in groups because intuitively the normal form theorem yields decision procedures for such products modulo the decision procedures for the groups and the amalgamated subgroups. The chapter discusses strong Britton extensions.

Computable algebra, general theory and theory of computable fields.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied a blend of algebra and the theory of recursive functions for the problem of finding a solvable homomorphism in a finite set of generators of the word problem of a finitely generated group.

Subgroups of Finitely Presented Groups

TL;DR: The main theorem of as discussed by the authors states that a finitely generated group can be embedded in a finite presented group if and only if it has a recursively enumerable set of defining relations.

Primitive recursive functions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider certain reductions in the recursion scheme for defining primitive recursive functions and refer to such functions simply as recursive functions, and also define some recursive functions which will be used.
