We introduce a class of algebras over a field $\mathbb{F}$ related to directed graphs in which all edges are labeled by nonzero elements of the field $\mathbb{F}$. If all labels are different from $1$, these algebras are axial algebras. We…
A skew Calabi-Yau algebra is a generalization of a Calabi-Yau algebra which allows for a non-trivial Nakayama automorphism. We prove three homological identities about the Nakayama automorphism and give several applications. The identities…
An automorphism $\alpha$ of a group $G$ is said to be central if $\alpha$ commutes with every inner automorphism of $G$. We construct a family of non-special finite $p$-groups having abelian automorphism groups. These groups provide counter…
We show that the algebraic automorphism group of the SL(2,C) character variety of a closed orientable surface with negative Euler characteristic is a finite extension of its mapping class group. Along the way, we provide a simple…
We construct an analogue of the Nagata automorphism of free nonassociative algebras and free commutative algebras of rank two over a Euclidean domain and prove that it is wild.
The motivation for this paper is to extend the known model theoretic treatment of differential Galois theory to the case of linear difference equations (where the derivative is replaced by an automorphism.) The model theoretic difficulties…
We study algebra endomorphisms and derivations of some localized down-up algebras $\A$. First, we determine all the algebra endomorphisms of $\A$ under some conditions on $r$ and $s$. We show that each algebra endomorphism of $\A$ is an…
Every irreducible outer automorphism of the free group of rank r is topologically represented by an irreducible train track map $f$ on some graph $\Gamma$ of rank r. Moreover, $f$ can always be written as a composition of folds and a graph…
An automorphism of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a bijective map $\phi$ from $V$ to itself such that $\phi(v_i)\phi(v_j)\in E$ $\Leftrightarrow$ $v_i v_j\in E$ for any two vertices $v_i$ and $v_j$. Denote by $\mathfrak{G}$ the group consisting of…
We introduce the concept of a double automorphism of an A-graded Lie algebra L. Roughly, this is an automorphism of L which also induces an automorphism of the group A. It is clear that the set of all double automorphisms of L forms a…
We show how to construct linearizations of matrix polynomials $z\mathbf{a}(z)\mathbf{d}_0 + \mathbf{c}_0$, $\mathbf{a}(z)\mathbf{b}(z)$, $\mathbf{a}(z) + \mathbf{b}(z)$ (when $\mathrm{deg}\left(\mathbf{b}(z)\right) <…
The superextension $\lambda(X)$ of a set $X$ consists of all maximal linked families on $X$. Any associative binary operation $*: X\times X \to X$ can be extended to an associative binary operation $*:…
The goal of this paper is to construct and describe certain arithmetic subgroups of the automorphism group of a partially commutative group. More precisely, given an arbitrary finite graph $\Gamma$ we construct an arithmetic subgroup…
For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…
Let $G$ be a finitely generated malabelian group, let $A\leq\mathrm{Out}(G)$ be a finitely generated subgroup, and let $\Gamma_{G,A}$ denote the preimage of $A$ in $\mathrm{Aut}(G)$. We give a general criterion for the linearity of…
We prove that if a group is nilpotent (resp. metabelian), then so is the subgroup of its automorphism group generated by all polynomial automorphisms.
We study the automorphism group of an idempotent evolution algebra, show that any finite group can be the automorphism group of an evolution algebra, and describe certain evolution algebras with given automorphism groups. In particular, we…
We show that a finite group $G$ admitting an automorphism $\alpha$ such that the function $G\rightarrow G$, $g\mapsto g\alpha(g)$, is bijective is necessarily solvable.
Let G be a complex semisimple linear algebraic group, and X a wonderful G-variety. We determine the connected automorphism group of X and we calculate Luna's invariants of X under its action.
It is well known that every finite subgroup of automorphism group of polynomial algebra of rank 2 over the field of zero characteristic is conjugated with a subgroup of linear automorphisms. We prove that it is not true for an arbitrary…
