Hard instances of natural computational problems are often elusive. In this note we present an example of a natural decision problem, the word problem for a certain finitely presented group, whose hard instances are easy to find. More…

We show that satisfiability for CTL* with equality-, order-, and modulo-constraints over Z is decidable. Previously, decidability was only known for certain fragments of CTL*, e.g., the existential and positive fragments and EF.

We construct a class of finitely generated groups which have arbitrarily large conjugacy separability function, but in which the conjugacy problem can be solved in polynomial time, demonstrating that the McKinsey algorithm for the conjugacy…

We obtain an essentially optimal estimate for the moment of order 32/3 of the exponential sum having argument $\alpha x^3+\beta x^2$. Subject to modest local solubility hypotheses, we thereby establish that pairs of diagonal Diophantine…
