Matrix mortality problem
text:
In computer science, the matrix mortality problem is a decision problem that asks, given a finite set of n×n matrices with integer coefficients, whether the zero matrix can be expressed as a finite product of matrices from this set. The matrix mortality problem is known to be undecidable when n ≥ 3. In fact, it is already undecidable for sets of 6
matrices when n = 3, for 4 matrices when n = 5, for 3 matrices when n = 9, and for 2 matrices when n = 15. In the case n = 2, it is an open problem wh
