It is proved that the generalized cluster complex defined by Fomin and Reading has a dihedral symmetry. Together with diagram symmetries, they generate its automorphism group. A consequence is a simple explicit formula for the order of this…
In this article, we study the properties of profinite geometric iterated monodromy groups associated to polynomials. Such groups can be seen as generic representations of absolute Galois groups of number fields into the automorphism group…
We examine the graded automorphism groups of quantum affine spaces and classify these groups for spaces of dimension 7 or less. Using permutation actions on partitions, we investigate cases when the group decomposes as a product of graded…
We study in detail the profinite group G arising as geometric \'etale iterated monodromy group of an arbitrary quadratic morphism f with an infinite postcritical orbit over a field of characteristic different from two. This is a…
For primes $p\ge 7$, we give a parametrization of the filtered $\varphi$-modules attached to the $p$-adic Tate modules of abelian surfaces over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with supersingular good reduction. We use this classification to determine the…
We study the higher derivative corrections that occur in type II superstring theories in ten dimensions or less. Assuming invariance under a discrete duality group G(Z) we show that the generic functions of the scalar fields that occur can…
We consider a linear $2\times2$ matrix ODE with two coalescing regular singularities. This coalescence is restricted with an isomonodromy condition with respect to the distance between the merging singularities in a way consistent with the…
In this paper we study the automorphisms group of some K3 surfaces which are double covers of the projective plane ramified over a smooth sextic plane curve. More precisely, we study some particlar case of a K3 surface of Picard rank two.
Given an automorphism of a smooth complex algebraic curve, there is an induced action on the moduli space of semi-stable rank 2 holomorphic bundles with fixed determinant. We give a complete description of the fixed variety in terms of…
We study character varieties arising as moduli of representations of an orientable surface group into a reductive group $G$. We first show that if $G/Z$ acts freely on the representation variety, then both the representation variety and the…
We study the effect of diagram automorphisms on rank-level duality. We use it to prove new symplectic rank-level dualities on genus zero smooth curves with marked points and chosen coordinates. We also show that rank-level dualities for the…
Pfister and Steenbrink studied punctual Hilbert schemes for irreducible curve singularities. In particular, they investigated the structure of special punctual Hilbert schemes for certain monomial curve singularities. In this paper, we…
We describe the structure of the algebraic group of automorphisms of all simple finite dimensional Lie superalgebras. Using this and \'etale cohomology considerations, we list all different isomorphism classes of the corresponding twisted…
It is a well-known fact that every group $G$ has a presentation of the form $G = F/R$, where $F$ is a free group and $R$ the kernel of the natural epimorphism from $F$ onto $G$. Driven by the desire to obtain a similar presentation of the…
We investigate the structure of the automorphism groups of Kimura Hadamard matrices (KHMs) constructed from dihedral groups. We identify several different types of automorphisms, and show that the automorphism group of a KHM always has a…
We investigate the endomorphism monoids of certain finite $p$-groups of order $p^8$ first studied by Jonah and Konvisser in 1975 as examples for finite $p$-groups with abelian automorphism group, and we show some necessary conditions for a…
The paper follows two interconnected directions. 1. Let $G$ be a Roelcke precompact closed subgroup of the group $\Sym(\omega)$ of permutations of the natural numbers. Then $\Inn(G)$ is closed in $\Aut(G)$, where $\Aut(G)$ carries the…
We classify the automorphism groups of del Pezzo surfaces of degrees one and two over an algebraically closed field of characteristic two. This finishes the classification of automorphism groups of del Pezzo surfaces in all characteristics.
Automorphism groups are intrincate conjugacy invariants for subshifts, which can reveal important features of the dynamical structure of a shift action. One important case is the study of automorphism groups when the underlying subshift has…
We obtain analogues of classical results on automorphism groups of holomorphic fiber bundles, in the setting of group schemes. Also, we establish a lifting property of the connected automorphism group, for torsors under abelian varieties.…
