On the orbits of automaton semigroups and groups

We investigate the orbits of automaton semigroups and groups to obtain algorithmic and structural results, both for general automata but also for some special subclasses.First, we show that a more general version of the finiteness problem for automaton groups is undecidable. This problem is equivale...
