 Word problem for groups   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
In abstract algebra, the word problem for groups is the problem of deciding whether two given words of a presentation of a group represent the same element.
There exists no general algorithm for this problem, as was shown by Pyotr Sergeyevich Novikov.
Novikov's result says that there are some finitely presented groups for which no algorithm solving the word problem exists.
