Half-automorphism group of Chein loops

Group Theory 2020-08-11 v3

Abstract

A bijection ff of a loop LL is a half-automorphism if f(xy){f(x)f(y),f(y)f(x)}f(xy)\in \{f(x)f(y),f(y)f(x)\}, for any x,yLx,y\in L. A half-automorphism is nontrivial when it is neither an automorphism nor an anti-automorphism. A Chein loop L=GGuL=G\cup Gu is a Moufang loop constructed from a group GG and an element uu of order 22 outside of GG. In this paper, the half-automorphism group of finite Chein loops is described.
