An order is a commutative ring that as an abelian group is finitely generated and free. A commutative ring is reduced if it has no non-zero nilpotent elements. In this paper we use a new tool, namely, the fact that every reduced order has a…

For most (and possibly all) non-associative finite simple Moufang loops, three generators of order 3 can be chosen so that each two of them generate a group isomorphic to $(3, 3 | 3, p)$. The subgroup structure of $(3, 3 | 3, p)$ depends on…

We investigate the possible structures imposed on a finite group by its possession of an automorphism sending a large fraction of the group elements to their cubes, the philosophy being that this should force the group to be, in some sense,…

Every finite $p$-group of coclass 2 has a noninner automorphism of order $p$ leaving the center elementwise fixed.

In this paper we study the existence of at least one non-inner automorphism of order p of a finite thin p-group, for any prime p.

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements, $n\geq2$ a positive integer, $\mathbb{V}_0$ a $n$-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_q$ and $\mathbb{T}_0$ the set of all linear functionals from $\mathbb{V}_0$ to…

We show that the holomorph of a cyclic group of order $n$ is isomorphic to its own automophism group when $n$ is twice of a power of an odd prime.

This paper determines the structure of the automorphism group of the unit group \((U_{p^e}, \cdot)\) and the monoid \((\mathbb{Z}/p^e \mathbb{Z}, \cdot)\). For \( e \geq 5 \), we establish that the automorphism group \( \Aut(U_{2^e}, \cdot)…

We determine the permutation groups that arise as the automorphism groups of cyclic combinatorial objects. As special cases we classify the automorphism groups of cyclic codes. We also give the permutations by which two cyclic combinatorial…

We consider the Macdonald group $\langle x,y\,|\, x^{[x,y]}=x^{1+2^m\ell},\, y^{[y,x]}=y^{1+2^m\ell}\rangle$ and its Sylow 2-subgroup $J=\langle x,y\,|\, x^{[x,y]}=x^{1+2^m\ell},\, y^{[y,x]}=y^{1+2^m\ell},…

A conjecture of Berkovich asserts that every non-simple finite p-group has a non-inner automorphism of order p. This conjecture is far from being proved despite the great effort devoted to it. In this paper we prove it for p-groups of…

We study the self-similar structure of loop amplitudes in quantum field theory and apply it to amplitude generation and renormalization. A renormalized amplitude can be regarded as an effective coupling that recursively appears within…

We consider polynomial maps described by so-called "(multivariate) linearized polynomials". These polynomials are defined using a fixed prime power, say q. Linearized polynomials have no mixed terms. Considering invertible polynomial maps…

A loop $(X,\circ)$ is said to be a Bruck loop if it satisfies the (right) Bol identity $((z\circ x)\circ y)\circ x = z\circ ((x\circ y)\circ x)$ and the automorphic inverse property $(x\circ y)^{-1}=x^{-1}\circ y^{-1}$. If $X$ is a finite…

Let A be a commutative unital algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic not equal to 2, whose generators form a finite-dimensional subspace V, with no nontrivial homogeneous quadratic relations. Let Q be a Hopf algebra…

Let $p>q$ be odd primes. We classify Bol loops and Bruck loops of order $pq$ up to isotopism. When $q$ does not divide $p^2-1$, the only Bol loop (and hence the only Bruck loop) of order $pq$ is the cyclic group of order $pq$. When $q$…

We describe inertial endomorphisms of an abelian group $A$, that is endomorphisms $\varphi$ with the property $|(\varphi(X)+X)/X|<\infty$ for each $X\le A$. They form a ring containing multiplications, the so-called finitary endomorphisms…

A UHF flow is an infinite tensor product type action of the reals on a UHF algebra $A$ and the flip automorphism is an automorphism of $A\otimes A$ sending $x\otimes y$ into $y\otimes x$. If $\alpha$ is an inner perturbation of a UHF flow…

We study the classifying space of a twisted loop group $L_{\sigma}G$ where $G$ is a compact Lie group and $\sigma$ is an automorphism of $G$ of finite order modulo inner automorphisms. Equivalently, we study the $\sigma$-twisted adjoint…

In this article we continue the study of automorphism groups of constant length substitution shifts and also their topological factors. We show that up to conjugacy, all roots of the identity map are letter exchanging maps, and all other…
