This includes the solvable Baumslag-Solitar groups BS(1,m), for m not +/-1. In addition, it is shown that, for any relatively prime integers m,n>=2, the pair of Baumslag-Solitar groups BS(1,m) and BS(1,n) can be realized by a pair of dual automata. The examples are then used to illustrate more general connections between Schreier graphs, composition of automata and dual automata.Minor corrections on which Baumslag-Solitar groups are realized by automataGroup Theory20E08, 68Q70, 20F05text
