Monadic second-order logic and the domino problem on self-similar graphs (2011.02735v1)
Published 5 Nov 2020 in math.GR, cs.LO, and math.LO
Abstract: We consider the domino problem on Schreier graphs of self-similar groups, and more generally their monadic second-order logic. On the one hand, we prove that if the group is bounded then the graph's monadic second-order logic is decidable. This covers, for example, the Sierpi\'nski gasket graphs and the Schreier graphs of the Basilica group. On the other hand, we already prove undecidability of the domino problem for a class of self-similar groups, answering a question by Barbieri and Sablik, and some examples including one of linear growth.
