Is the isomorphism problem solvable for torsion-free groups?

Novikov's centrally-symmetric group $\mathfrak{A}_P$ is a torsion-free group with undecidable word problem, constructed in [1]. Novikov did not prove it is torsion-free but, as Adian points out in [Ad …

Decision problems for which it is unknown whether they are decidable

The word problem for a finitely presented group $G = \langle A \mid R \rangle $ and the associated canonical homomorphism $\pi : F_A \to G$, asks: given an element $w \in F_A$, do we have $\pi(w) = 1$ …
