Abstract

For a group $G$ with a certain positive presentation, we provide a criterion for two tuples of generators of $G$ to be Hurwitz equivalent. Based on this criterion, we present an algorithmic approach to solve the Hurwitz equivalence and the Hurwitz search problems by using the word reversing method.
