Commutator Relators Do Not Force Hopficity, Residual Finiteness or Automaticity

Precise statement

Baumslag asked whether a one-relator group $G=F/\langle\langle r\rangle\rangle$ with $r$ a commutator is Hopfian, residually finite or automatic. The paper constructs a family $G_m=\langle a,t \mid [t,a[a,t]^{-m}]\rangle$ answering all three negatively.

The source statement is reproduced for indexing with attribution. Mathematical correctness requires domain-expert or mechanical review. VibeMath has not independently audited statement fidelity, correctness, priority, or novelty.

What AI did

ChatGPT

The paper's disclosure is a single sentence: ChatGPT assisted in constructing the examples. The examples are the result, but 'assisted' does not say how much, so the lowest tier applies.

Verification boundary

unreviewed

No independent check, and the one-line disclosure does not separate the model's contribution from the authors'. Preprint, not refereed.
