Title
Solving Commutative Relaxations Of Word Problems
Abstract
We present an algebraic characterization of the standard commutative relaxation of the word problem in terms of a polynomial equality. We then consider a variant of the commutative word problem, referred to as the "Zero-to-All reachability" problem. We show that this problem is equivalent to a finite number of commutative word problems, and we use this insight to derive necessary conditions for Zero-to-All reachability. We conclude with a set of illustrative examples.
