We study the generic properties of finitely presented monoids and semigroups, and the generic-case complexity of decision problems for them. We show that for a finite alphabet A of size at least 2 and positive integers k and m, the generic A-generated k-relation monoid and semigroup (defined using any of several stratifications) satisfies the small overlap condition C(m). It follows that the generic finitely presented monoid has a number of interesting semigroup-theoretic properties and, by a recent result of the author, admits a linear time solution to its word problem and a regular language of unique normal forms for its elements. Moreover, the uniform word problem for finitely presented monoids is generically solvable in polynomial time.

We investigate the average-casecomplexity of decision problems for finitely generated groups, in particular, the word and membership problems. Using our recent results on "generic-case complexity", we show that if a finitely generated group G has word problem solvable in subexponential time and has a subgroup of finite index which possesses a non-elementary word-hyperbolic quotient group, then the average-casecomplexity of the word problem of G is linear time, uniformly with respect to the collection of all length-invariant measures on G. This results applies to many of the groups usually studied in geometric group theory: for example, all braid groups B-n all groups of hyperbolic knots, many Coxeter groups and all Artin groups of extra-large type.

A generic-case approach to algorithmic problems was suggested by Myasnikov, Kapovich, Schupp and Shpilrain in 2003. This approach studies the behavior of an algorithm on typical inputs and ignores the rest of the inputs. In this paper we consider genericcomplexity of the searching graph isomorphism problem. We fit this problem in the frameworks of genericcomplexity and prove that its natural subproblem is generically hard provided that the searching graph isomorphism problem is hard in the worst case.
In this note we introduce a notion of a generically (strongly generically) NP-complete problem and show that the randomized bounded version of the halting problem is strongly generically NP-complete. (C) 2016 Elsevier...

We prove that Whitehead's algorithm for solving the automorphism problem in a fixed free group F-k has strongly linear time generic-case complexity. This is done by showing that the "hard" part of the algorithm terminates in linear time on an exponentially generic set of input pairs. We then apply these results to one-relator groups. We obtain a Mostow-type isomorphism rigidity result for random one-relator groups: If two such groups are isomorphic then their Cayley graphs on the given generating sets are isometric. Although no nontrivial examples were previously known, we prove that one-relator groups are generically complete groups, that is, they have trivial center and trivial outer automorphism group. We also prove that the stabilizers of generic elements of F-k in Aut(F-k) are cyclic groups generated by inner automorphisms and that Aut(F-k)-orbits are uniformly small in the sense of their growth entropy. We further prove that the number I-k(n) of isomorphism types of k-generator one-relator groups with defining relators of length n satisfies c(1)/n (2k - 1)(n) <= I-k(n) <= c(2)/n(2k- 1)(n), where c(1), c(2) are positive constants depending on k but not on n. Thus I-k(n) grows in essentially the same manner as the number of cyclic words of length n.
