On Tarski's Decidability Problem
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: This note provides a brief guide to the current state of the literature on Tarski's problems with emphasis on features that distinguish the approach based on combinatorial and algorithmic group theory from the topological approach to Tarski's problem. We use this note to provide corrections to some typos and to address some misconceptions from the recent report by Z. Sela about the relations between the concepts and results in the approaches to the Tarski problems. We were forced to read Sela's papers to be able to address some of his comments, and found errors in his papers 6, 3 and 4 on Diophantine Geometry published in GAFA and Israel J. Math. which we mention in Section 4. His proceedings of the ICM 2002 paper also contains wrong Theorem 6 (to make it correct one has to change the definition of non-elementary hyperbolic -residually free towers to make them equivalent to our coordinate groups of regular NTQ systems.)
