Abstract

We construct a 4-state 2-letter bireversible automaton generating the lamplighter group (ℤ22)≀ℤ'>(Z22)≀Z(ℤ22)≀ℤ of rank two. The action of the generators on the boundary of the tree can be induced by the affine transformations on the ring ℤ2[[t]]'>Z2[[t]]ℤ2[[t]] of formal power series over ℤ2'>Z2ℤ2.
