Abstract
We apply small cancellation methods originating from group theory to investigate the structure of a quotient ring Z2 F/I where Z2 F is the group algebra of the free group F over the field Z2, and the ideal I is generated by a single trinomial 1 + v + vw, where v is a complicated word depending on w. In Z2 F/I we have (1 + w)−1 = v, so 1 + w becomes invertible. We construct an explicit linear basis of Z2 F/I (thus showing that Z2 F/I ≠ 0). This is the first step in constructing rings with exotic properties.
