Using algebraic geometry methods, the third author proved that the group ring of a surjunctive group with coefficients in a field is always stably finite. In other words, every group satisfying Gottschalk’s conjecture also satisfies Kaplansky’s stable finiteness conjecture. Here, we present a proof of this result based on the first-order model theory.
