description | Let $A \cong k\langle X \rangle / I$ be an associative algebra. A finite word over alphabet $X$ is $I$-reducible if its image in $A$ is a $k$-linear combination of length-lexicographically lesser words. An obstruction is a subword-minimal $I$-reducible word. If the number of obstructions is finite then $I$ has a finite Gröbner basis, and the word problem for the algebra is decidable. A cogrowth function is the number of obstructions of length $\le n$. We show that the cogrowth function of a finitely presented algebra is either bounded or at least logarithmical. We also show that an uniformly recurrent word has at least logarithmical cogrowth. |
