The present work investigates regular, semiregular, and chiral polytopes of any rank $d\geq 3$, whose automorphism groups are 2-groups. There is a large variety of rather small finite regular or alternating semiregular polytopes with…

Assuming G\"{o}del's axiom of constructibility $\bold V=\bold L,$ we present a characterization of those groups $L$ for which there exist arbitrarily large groups $H$ such that $aut(H) \cong L$. In particular, we show that it suffices to…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$. It is proved that the group $\Aut_{ord}(\CD (L_n))$ of order preserving automorphisms of the ring $\CD (L_n)$ of differential operators on a Laurent polynomial algebra $L_n:= K[x_1^{\pm 1}, ...,…

We introduce two refinements of the class of $5/2$-groups, inspired by the classes of automorphism groups of configurations and automorphism groups of unit circulant digraphs. We show that both of these classes have the property that any…

We will review the main results concerning the automorphism groups of saturated structures which were obtained during the two last decades. The main themes are: the small index property in the countable and uncountable cases; the…

In this paper we obtain the automorphism groups of the token graphs of some graphs. In particular we obtain the automorphism group of the $k$-token graph of the path graph $P_n$, for $n\neq 2k$. Also, we obtain the automorphism group of the…

For each prime power $q\geq 5$, we construct a rank four chiral polytope that has a group $PSL(3,q)$ as automorphism group and Schl\"afli type $\{q-1,\frac{2(q-1)}{(3,q-1)},q-1\}$. We also construct rank five polytopes for some values of…

We study authomorphisms of $Ind$-groups of polynomial automorphisms (wich are singular) via tame approximations. Such objects were pioneeered in research by B.I.Plotkin We obtain a number of properties of $Aut(Aut(A))$, where $A$ is the…

We prove that every finite non-abelian simple group acts as the automorphism group of a chiral polyhedron, apart from the groups $PSL_2(q)$, $PSL_3(q)$, $PSU_3(q)$ and $A_7$.

For every odd prime $p$ and every integer $n\geq 12$ there is a Heisenberg group of order $p^{5n/4+O(1)}$ that has $p^{n^2/24+O(n)}$ pairwise nonisomorphic quotients of order $p^{n}$. Yet, these quotients are virtually indistinguishable.…

One of the two basic theorems in [5] on the existence of solutions of PDEs is improved with the use of a group analysis type argument.

Let $p$ be a an odd prime and let $G$ be a finite $p$-group with cyclic commutator subgroup $G'$. We prove that the exponent and the abelianization of the centralizer of $G'$ in $G$ are determined by the group algebra of $G$ over any field…

We prove that every finite group $G$ can be realized as the automorphism group of a poset with $4|G|$ points. We also provide bounds for the minimum number of points of a poset with cyclic automorphism group of a given prime power order.

For odd primes p, we examine $\hat H^*(Aut(F_{2(p-1)}); \Z_{(p)})$, the Farrell cohomology of the group of automorphisms of a free group $F_{2(p-1)}$ on $2(p-1)$ generators, with coefficients in the integers localized at the prime $(p)…

A new result of G. Cz\'edli states that for an ordered set $P$ with at least two elements and a group $G$, there exists a bounded lattice $L$ such that the ordered set of principal congruences of $L$ is isomorphic to $P$ and the…

In this paper, we classify regular polytopes with automorphism groups of order $2^n$ and Schl\"afli types $\{4, 2^{n-3}\}, \{4, 2^{n-4}\}$ and $\{4, 2^{n-5}\}$ for $n \geq 10$, therefore giving a partial answer to a problem proposed by…

We characterize the fixed sets of automorphisms of an arbitrary countable, arithmetically saturated structure.

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.

Let $G$ be an algebraic group of type $G_2$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2,3$. In this paper we calculate centralizers of semisimple elements in anisotropic $G_2$. Using these, we show explicitly that there are six conjugacy…

We give a sufficient condition on a finite $p$-group $G$ of nilpotency class 2 so that $\Aut_c(G) = \Inn(G)$, where $\Aut_c(G)$ and $\Inn(G)$ denote the group of all class preserving automorphisms and inner automorphisms of $G$…
