Abstract

Let C1 be the class of finitely presented monoids with word problem solvable in linear time. Let P be a Markov property of monoids related to class C1 in some sense. It is undecidable given a monoid in C1 whether it satisfies P. Let C and C' be classes of finitely presented monoids with word problem solvable in some time-bounds. If C contains C1 and C' properly contains C, then it is undecidable given a monoid in C' whether it belongs to C.
