Let G be a group and H a subgroup of G of finite index. In this article, it is proved that if the number of isomorphism classes of right transversals of H in G is 5, then the index of H in G is 6 and the permutation representation of G on…
We introduce a class of automorphisms of rooted $d$-regular trees arising from affine actions on their boundaries viewed as infinite dimensional vector spaces. This class includes, in particular, many examples of self-similar realizations…
We prove that the automorphism group of the Urysohn diversity is a universal Polish group. Furthermore we show that the automorphism group of the rational Urysohn diversity has ample generics, a dense conjugacy class and that it embeds…
For any positive integer $n$, we exhibit a cofinite subgroup $\Gamma_n$ of the mapping class group of a surface of genus at most two such that $\Gamma_n$ admits an epimorphism onto a free group of rank $n$. We conclude that…
We find sharp upper bounds on the order of the automorphism group of a hypersurface in complex projective space in every dimension and degree. In each case, we prove that the hypersurface realizing the upper bound is unique up to…
We prove that for any prime number $p$, every finite non-abelian $p$-group $G$ of class 2 has a noninner automorphism of order $p$ leaving either the Frattini subgroup $\Phi(G)$ or $\Omega_1(Z(G))$ elementwise fixed.
An endomorphism of a free group is called primitivity preserving if it takes every primitive element to another primitive. In this paper we prove that every primitivity preserving endomorphism of a free group of a finite rank n > 2 is an…
The group of 2-by-2 matrices with integer entries and determinant $\pm > 1$ can be identified either with the group of outer automorphisms of a rank two free group or with the group of isotopy classes of homeomorphisms of a 2-dimensional…
This self-contained paper is part of a series \cite{FF2,FF3} on actions by diffeomorphisms of infinite groups on compact manifolds. The two main results presented here are: 1) Any homomorphism of (almost any) mapping class group or…
It is shown that if G is a finite p-group of coclass 2 with p > 2, then G has a noninner automorphism of order p.
Automorphism groups of $2$-groups of coclass at most $3$ are investigated.
Let $G$ be a finite group minimally generated by $d(G)$ elements and $\Aut_c(G)$ denote the group of all (conjugacy) class-preserving automorphisms of $G$. Continuing our work [Class preserving automorphisms of finite $p$-groups, J. London…
Let S be a connected, compact and orientable surface of genus two having exactly one boundary component. We study automorphisms of the Torelli complex for S, and describe any isomorphism between finite index subgroups of the Torelli group…
In this article, we study orientably-regular maps of Euler characteristic $-2p^2$ and classify those that admit a group of orientation-preserving automorphisms of order $10p^2$, where $p$ is a prime number. Along the way, we classify all…
In this paper we give a classification of classes of involutions on an automorphism group of an octonion algebra over fields of characteristic 2, and describe the classes of their fixed point groups.
For any abstract subfactor planar algebra $P$, there exists a finite index extremal subfactor $M_0 \subset M_1$ with $P$ as its standard invariant. In this paper, we classify the automorphism group of a bipartite graph planar algebra, and…

A complex of incompressible surfaces in a handlebody is constructed so that it contains, as a subcomplex, the complex of curves of the boundary of the handlebody. For genus 2 handlebodies, the group of automorphisms of this complex is used…
Building on the work of Mann and Rafi, we introduce an expanded definition of a telescoping 2-manifold and proceed to study the homeomorphism group of a telescoping 2-manifold. Our main result shows that it is strongly distorted. We then…
We show that the topological full group of a Hausdorff ample groupoid with compact unit space coincides with the group of homotopy classes of invertible isometries in pseudofunction algebras associated with the groupoid. Moreover, if the…
