Abstract

This paper studies the rigidity properties of the abstract commensurator of the outer automorphism group of a universal Coxeter group of rank nn, which is the free product WnW_n of nn copies of Z/2Z\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}. We prove that for n5n\geq 5 the natural map Out(Wn)Comm(Out(Wn))\mathrm{Out}(W_n) \to \mathrm{Comm}(\mathrm{Out}(W_n)) is an isomorphism and that every isomorphism between finite index subgroups of Out(Wn)\mathrm{Out}(W_n) is given by a conjugation by an element of Out(Wn)\mathrm{Out}(W_n).
