| Apr 5, 2010 at 2:34 | comment | added | HJRW | The generating problem is not solvable in lattices in Lie groups. For instance, F x F is a lattice in SL_2(R) x SL_2(R). | |
| Apr 5, 2010 at 2:31 | comment | added | HJRW | Note that FxF is automatic, so the generating problem is unsolvable in automatic groups. | |

| Apr 4, 2010 at 22:02 | comment | added | Qiaochu Yuan | Wikipedia says no. So maybe you're right. | |
| Apr 4, 2010 at 21:25 | comment | added | Sergei Ivanov | I think it's too restrictive. Is Heisenberg group automatic? | |
| Apr 4, 2010 at 21:18 | comment | added | Qiaochu Yuan | I think the concept you want is that of an automatic group: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_group | |
