Abstract
We propose an induction scheme that aims at establishing the stable Andrews-Curtis conjecture in the affirmative. The stable Andrews-Curtis conjecture is equivalent to the conjecture that every contractible fake surface is 3-deformable to a point. We prove that every contractible fake surface of complexity less than 6 is 3-deformable to a point by induction.
