These groups are represented as Thompson groups, hence as partial transformation groups of strings. The proof provides a simulation of combinational circuits by elements of the Thompson-Higman group G_{3,1}.73 pagesGroup Theory20F10, 68Q15Circuits, coNP-completeness, and the groups of Richard Thompsontext
