Let k be a field of characteristic zero. Let phi be a k-endomorphism of the polynomial algebra k[x_1,...,x_n]. It is known that phi is an automorphism if and only if it maps irreducible polynomials to irreducible polynomials. In this paper…

By dimensionally reducing the higher derivative corrections of ten-dimensional IIB theory on a torus we deduce constraints on the E_{n+1} automorphic forms that occur in d=10-n dimensions. In particular we argue that these automorphic forms…

Let $K$ be a field and $f:\mathbb{P}^N \to \mathbb{P}^N$ a morphism. There is a natural conjugation action on the space of such morphisms by elements of the projective linear group $\text{PGL}_{N+1}$. The group of automorphisms, or…

We investigate the concept of definable, or inner, automorphism in the logical setting of partial Horn theories. The central technical result extends a syntactical characterization of the group of such automorphisms (called the covariant…

A new approach is suggested to characterize algebraically automorphisms of the category of free algebras of a given variety. It gives in many cases an answer to the problem set by the first of authors, if automorphisms of such a category…

In any category with a reasonable notion of cover, each object has a group of scissors automorphisms. We prove that under mild conditions, the homology of this group is independent of the object, and can be expressed in terms of the…

Let K[x,y] be the algebra of two-variable polynomials over a field K. A polynomial p=p(x, y) is called a test polynomial (for automorphisms) if, whenever \phi(p)=p for a mapping \phi of K[x,y], this \phi must be an automorphism. Here we…

In this paper, we consider the probability that a randomly chosen automorphism of a finite group fixes a randomly chosen element of a subgroup of that group. We obtain several new results as well as generalizations and improvements of some…

The work proves that, for three-dimensional upper triangular groups over a field of odd characteristic with an abelian unipotent subgroup, the ring of invariants is polynomial if and only if the unipotent subgroup is generated by…

First, we shall formulate and prove Theorem of Lie-Kolchin type for a cone and derive some algebro-geometric consequences. Next, inspired by a recent result of Dinh and Sibony we pose a conjecture of Tits type for a group of automorphisms…

We introduce a class of polynomial maps that we call polynomial roots of powerseries, and show that automorphisms with this property generate the automorphism group in any dimension. In particular we determine generically which polynomial…

Planar polynomial automorphisms are polynomial maps of the plane whose inverse is also a polynomial map. A map is reversible if it is conjugate to its inverse. Here we obtain a normal form for automorphisms that are reversible by an…

J.Ritt has investigated the structure of complex polynomials with respect to superposition. In particular, he listed all the polynomials admitting different double decompositions into indecomposable polynomials. The analogues of Ritt theory…

Dmitriy Zhuk has proved that there exist relational structures which admit near-unanimity polymorphisms, but the minimum arity of such a polymorphism is large and almost matches the known upper bounds. We present a simplified and explicit…

In this article it is determined which integral reflection representations of the symmetric groups and the primitive complex reflection groups of degree $2$ have rings of invariants which are isomorphic to polynomial rings.

Polytopes are ubiquitous in different areas of mathematics. Gleason and Hubard established a factorisation theorem, stating that every abstract polytope has a unique factorisation into prime polytopes. We compute the automorphism group of a…

Orthogonal polynomials have very useful properties in the solution of mathematical problems, so recent years have seen a great deal in the field of approximation theory using orthogonal polynomials. In this paper, we characterize the…

We define a new topological polynomial extending the Bollobas-Riordan one, which obeys a four-term reduction relation of the deletion/contraction type and has a natural behavior under partial duality. This allows to write down a completely…

We construct a model for the space of automorphisms of a connected p-compact group in terms of the space of automorphisms of its maximal torus normalizer and its root datum. As a consequence we show that any homomorphism to the outer…

We introduce the notion of induced automorphisms in order to state a criterion to determine whether a given automorphism on a manifold of $K3^{[n]}$ type is, in fact, induced by an automorphism of a $K3$ surface and the manifold is a moduli…
