Free inverse monoids are not $FP_2$

Robert D. Gray, Benjamin Steinberg

Published 2020-02-18Version 1

We give a topological proof that a free inverse monoid on one or more generators is neither of type left-$FP_2$ nor right-$FP_2$. This strengthens a classical result of Schein that such monoids are not finitely presented as monoids.
