Description
Using an analogue of Makanin-Razborov diagrams, we give a description of the solution set of systems of equations over an equationally Noetherian free product of groups $G$. Equivalently, we give a parametrisation of the set $Hom(H, G)$ of all homomorphisms from a finitely generated group $H$ to $G$. Furthermore, we show that every algebraic set over $G$ can be decomposed as a union of finitely many images of algebraic sets of NTQ systems.
If the universal Horn theory of $G$ (the theory of quasi-identities) is decidable, then our constructions are effective.
