Title
Lamplighter groups and automata
Abstract
This paper investigates presentations of lamplighter groups using computational models from automata theory. The present work shows that if G can be presented such that the full group operation is recognised by a transducer, then the same is true for the lamplighter group $$G \wr {{\mathbb {Z}}}$$ of G. Furthermore, Cayley presentations, where only multiplications with constants are recognised by transducers, are used to study generalised lamplighter groups of the form $$G \wr {{\mathbb {Z}}}^d$$ and $$G \wr F_d$$ , where $$F_d$$ is the free group over d generators. Additionally, $${{\mathbb {Z}}}_k \wr {{\mathbb {Z}}}^2$$ and $${{\mathbb {Z}}}_k \wr {F_d}$$ are shown to be Cayley tree automatic.
