Threefold Post Correspondence System

Abstract

We introduce the concept of a threefold Post correspondence system (3PCS for short) and we consider it as an instance of the threefold Post correspondence problem. With each 3PCS, we associate three Post correspondence systems, i.e., three instances of the Post correspondence problem. We conjecture that for each 3PCS, the question of the threefold Post correspondence problem or for some associated Post correspondence system the question of the Post correspondence problem is decidable.
