For a reductive group G and a finite order Cartan-type automorphism \iota of G, we construct an eigenvariety parameterizing \iota-invariant cuspidal Hecke eigensystems of G. In particular, for G = Gln, we prove, any self-dual cuspidal Hecke…

We prove that we have an isomorphism of type $A_{aut}(\mathbb C_\sigma[G])\simeq A_{aut}(\mathbb C[G])^\sigma$, for any finite group $G$, and any 2-cocycle $\sigma$ on $G$. In the particular case $G=\mathbb Z_n^2$, this leads to a…

For a reductive group G over a non-archimedean local field, we compare smooth representations over C with smooth representations over Qbar (an algebraic closure of Q). We show that an elliptic G-representation (in the sense of Arthur) can…

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 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…

There are various results in the literature which are part of the general philosophy that a finite group for which a certain parameter (for example, the number of conjugacy classes or the maximum number of elements inverted, squared or…

For a real, non-singular, 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra $\mathfrak{n}$, the group \Aut(\mathfrak{n})/\Aut_0(\mathfrak{n})$, where $\Aut_0(\mathfrak{n})$ is the group of automorphisms which act trivially on the center, is the direct product…

The automorphism group of a finitely generated free group is the normal closure of a single element of order 2. If $m$ is less than $n$ then a homomorphism $Aut(F_n)\to Aut(F_m)$ can have cardinality at most 2. More generally, this is true…

The structure of a certain subgroup $S$ of the automorphism group of a partially commutative group (RAAG) $G$ is described in detail: namely the subgroup generated by inversions and elementary transvections. We define admissible subsets of…

We obtain the modular automorphism group of any quotient modular curve of level $N$, with $4,9\nmid N$. In particular, we obtain some non-expected automorphisms of order 3 that appear for the quotient modular curves when the Atkin-Lehner…

In a recent paper of Bhowmick, Skalski and So{\l}tan the notion of a quantum group of automorphisms of a finite quantum group was introduced and, for a given finite quantum group G, existence of the universal quantum group acting on G by…

Let $G$ be a finite group admitting a coprime automorphism $\alpha$ of order $e$. Denote by $I_G(\alpha)$ the set of commutators $g^{-1}g^\alpha$, where $g\in G$, and by $[G,\alpha]$ the subgroup generated by $I_G(\alpha)$. We study the…

We study the problem of lifting of polynomial symplectomorphisms in characteristic zero to automorphisms of the Weyl algebra by means of approximation by tame automorphisms. We utilize -- and reprove -- D. Anick's fundamental result on…

Given integers $d\ge 3$ and $N\ge 3$. Let $G$ be a finite abelian group acting faithfully and linearly on a smooth hypersurface of degree $d$ in the complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^{N-1}$. Suppose $G\subset PGL(N, \mathbb{C})$ can be…

We study a class of finite groups $G$ which behave similarly to elementary abelian $p$-groups with $p$ prime, that is, there exists a subgroup $N$ such that all elements of $G\setminus N$ are conjugate or inverse-conjugate under $\Aut(G)$.…

Let $F$ be a CM number field. We generalize existing automorphy lifting theorems for regular residually irreducible $p$-adic Galois representations over $F$ by relaxing the big image assumption on the residual representation.

Assume $G$ is a finite $p$-group, and let $S$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $\operatorname{Aut}(G)$ with $\exp(S)=q$. We prove that if $G$ is of class $c$, then $\exp(G)|p^{\ceil{\log_pc}}q^3$, and if $G$ is a metabelian $p$-group of class at…

We prove new automorphy lifting theorems for residually reducible Galois representations of unitary type in which the residual representation is permitted to have an arbitrary number of irreducible constituents.

Let $G$ be a finite group admitting a coprime automorphism $\alpha$. Let $J_G(\alpha)$ denote the set of all commutators $[x,\alpha]$, where $x$ belongs to an $\alpha$-invariant Sylow subgroup of $G$. We show that $[G,\alpha]$ is soluble or…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional (Artinian) Gorenstein algebra, and let $\operatorname{Aut}(A)^{\circ}$ denote the connected component of the identity in the automorphism group of $A$. We introduce a new subclass of Gorenstein algebras and…
