Biautomaticity conjecture under the Levitt–McCammond flat conditions

Let XX be a compact locally CAT(0) triangle-square complex such that no intrinsically aperiodic flat embeds in X~\widetilde{X} and there are only finitely many distinct thoroughly crumpled flats that embed in X~\widetilde{X}. Let a Gersten–Short geodesic be a geodesic of the type used in the source, and let a regular path system satisfy the generalized fellow-traveler property when it has the property defined in the paper. Biautomaticity conjecture under the flat conditions. There is a vertex vv of XX such that Gersten–Short geodesics starting and ending at points of the orbit π1(X)v\pi_1(X)\cdot v form a regular path system satisfying the generalized fellow-traveler property. In particular, π1(X)\pi_1(X) is biautomatic. The conjecture is presented as a conditional route to biautomaticity, and the supplied status evidence says that the original Levitt–McCammond conjecture remains open.
