A note on words having same image on finite groups

The question of whether two words in a free group that induce the same measure on every finite group as word maps are automorphic remains open. In this work, we study words whose images as word maps on every finite group are identical. We establish that two words in F₂, where one of the words is xⁿ or x, yⁿ for n, having same image on every finite group, are endomorphic to each other. Furthermore, we demonstrate that if the word map corresponding to a word w₁ Fₙ has the same image as a test word w₂ Fₙ on every finite group, then this is sufficient to ensure that w₁ and w₂ induce the same measure on every finite group.
