Abstract | This report is a preliminary version of the twelfth chapter in the forthcoming book of M.~Lothaire {\em Algebraic Combinatorics on Words}. The aim is to describe a self-contained proof of a fundamental result of Makanin (1977), which solves the satisfiability problem of equations with constants over free monoids. The presentation of Makanin's algorithm is based on a generalization due to Schulz (1990), where Makanin's result is extended to the case where solutions are restricted by imposing regular constraints on the variables.
