Systems of Word Equations and Polynomials: a New Approach
We develop new polynomial methods for studying systems of word equations. We use them to improve some earlier results and to analyze how sizes of systems of word equations satisfying certain independence properties depend on the lengths of the equations. These methods give the first nontrivial upper...

Summary: | We develop new polynomial methods for studying systems of word equations. We use them to improve some earlier results and to analyze how sizes of systems of word equations satisfying certain independence properties depend on the lengths of the equations. These methods give the first nontrivial upper bounds for the sizes of the systems. |
