We initiate the study of analogues of symmetric spaces for the family of finite dihedral groups. In particular, we investigate the structure of the automorphism group, characterize the involutions of the automorphism group, and determine…

We prove that the super-linearizability of polynomial systems is preserved by all currently known classes of polynomial automorphisms of $\R^n$. We then establish connections between such automorphisms and a sufficient condition for…

Following the program of investigation of alternative spinor duals potentially applicable to fermions beyond the standard model, we demonstrate explicitly the existence of several well-defined spinor duals. Going further we define a mapping…

In this article we prove that every automorphism of a universal sofic group is class preserving, i.e. preserves the conjugacy classes

We study homomorphisms of multiplicative groups of fields preserving algebraic dependence and show that such homomorphisms give rise to valuations.

We determine the group of linear transformations on a vector space $V$ that preserve a polynomial function $f$ on $V$ for several interesting pairs $(V,f)$, using the theory of semisimple algebraic groups.

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,…

We study automorphism groups of formal matrix algebras. We also consider automorphisms of ordinary matrix algebras (in particular, triangular matrix algebras).

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…

Let $k$ be an arbitrary field and $d$ a positive integer. For each degenerate symmetric or antisymmetric bilinear form $M$ on $k^{d}$ we determine the structure of the Lie algebra of matrices that preserve $M$, and of the Lie algebra of…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of stable automorphic forms for semisimple algebraic groups and use the stability of automorphic forms to study the geometry of infinite dimensional arithmetic quotients.

In this paper we study the algebraic structure of $\omega$-stable bilinear maps, arbitrary rings and nilpotent groups. We will also provide rather complete structure theorems for the above structures in the finite Morley rank case.

We study topological group theoretic properties of algebraic groups over local fields. In particular, we find conditions under which such groups have closed images under arbitrary continuous homomorphisms into arbitrary topological groups.

Let us consider a polynomial algebra in three variables equipped with an integer grading. We construct a system of group-generating automorphisms that preserve a given grading.

We characterize the groups isomorphic to full automorphism groups of ordered abelian groups. The result will follow from classical theorems on ordered groups adding an argument from proofs used to realize rings as endomorphism rings of…

For most classical and similitude groups, we show that each element can be written as a product of two transformations that a) preserve or almost preserve the underlying form and b) whose squares are certain scalar maps. This generalizes…

Hahn groups endowed with the canonical valuation play a fundamental role in the classification of valued abelian groups. In this paper we study the group of valuation (respectively order) preserving automorphisms of a Hahn group $G$. Under…

Let $L$ be an algebra over a field $F$ with the binary operations $+$ and $[,]$. Then $L$ is called a left Leibniz algebra if it satisfies the left Leibniz identity: $[[a,b],c]=[a,[b,c]]-[b,[a,c]]$ for all elements $a,b,c\in L$. A linear…

We study the automorphisms of a Cayley graph that preserve its natural edge-colouring. More precisely, we are interested in groups G, such that every such automorphism of every connected Cayley graph on G has a very simple form: the…

We classify endomorphisms of the plane that preserve a pencil of curves.
