This paper deals with $n$-dimensional algebras, over any field, which have only trivial derivation (automorphism) and simple algebras. It is shown that the corresponding sets of algebras are not empty and, in algebraically closed field…

An automorphism of a group is called outer if it is not an inner automorphism. Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group. Then for every outer $p$-automorphism $\phi$ of $G$ the subgroup $C_G(\phi)=\{x\in G \;|\; x^\phi=x\}$ has order $p$ if and only…

We prove that the conjugacy problem in Out(Fm) is solvable for the class of outer automorphisms whose restrictions to their polynomial subgroups are of finite order. To do this, we first investigate the structure of suspensions of free…

A new approach is suggested to characterize algebraically automorphisms of the category of free algebras of a given variety. It gives in many cases an answer to the problem set by the first of authors, if automorphisms of such a category…

We prove that all nontrivial finite subgroups of derived automorphisms of K3 surfaces of Picard number one have order two and give formulas for the numbers of their conjugacy classes. We also obtain a similar result for the subgroups which…

We describe all the fine group gradings, up to equivalence, on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak d_4$. This problem is equivalent to finding the maximal abelian diagonalizable subgroups of the automorphism group of $\mathfrak d_4$. We prove that…

Every indefinite binary form occurs as the Picard lattice of some K3-surface. The group of its isometries, or automorphs, coincides with the automorphism group of the K3-surface, but only up to finite groups. The classical theory of…

Let $\mathbb{C}$ be the field of complex numbers. Let $k$ be natural number with $k \geq 2$ and let $p$ be a rational prime. In this paper we count the number of conjugacy classes of admissible cyclic subgroups of…

We study structurable algebras and their associated Freudenthal triple systems over commutative rings. The automorphism groups of these triple systems are exceptional groups of type $\mathrm{E}_7$, and we realize groups of type…

In one of our recent papers, the associative and the Lie algebras of Weyl type $A[D]=A\otimes F[D]$ were defined and studied, where $A$ is a commutative associative algebra with an identity element over a field $F$ of any characteristic,…

We show that reasonably well behaved 3d and 4D TQFts must contain certain algebraic structures. In 4D, we find both Hopf categories and trialgebras.

In this paper, we prove that each automorphism of the Torelli group of a surface is induced by a diffeomorphism of the surface, provided that the surface is a closed, connected, orientable surface of genus at least 3. This result was…

The nontrivial unital composition superalgebras, of dimension 3 and 6, which exist only in characteristic 3, are obtained from the split Cayley algebra and its order 3 automorphisms, by means of the process of semisimplification of the…

Let g be a simple complex finite dimensional Lie algebra and let U_q^+(g) be the positive part of the quantum enveloping algebra of g. If g is of type A_2, the group of algebra automorphisms of U_q^+(g) is a semidirect product of a…

We combine classical methods of combinatorial group theory with the theory of small cancellations over relatively hyperbolic groups to construct finitely generated torsion-free groups that have only finitely many classes of conjugate…

We clarify selection rules of conjugacy classes of several finite discrete groups where we deal with both gauged and ungauged cases. We find that the selection rules enjoy finite Abelian or non-Abelian discrete symmetries originating from…

We study endomorphisms of a free group of finite rank by means of their action on specific sets of elements. In particular, we prove that every endomorphism of the free group of rank 2 which preserves an automorphic orbit (i.e., acts ``like…

This paper addresses the classification problem of associative algebras over arbitrary base fields. We present a list of three-dimensional associative algebras with canonical representatives of the isomorphism classes for fields of…

We describe the groups of automorphisms of two generated free braided associative algebras with involutive diagonal braidings over a field of characteristic $\neq 2$. Depending on the form of the diagonal involutive braiding, five different…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, F its algebraically closed extension, and G be the group of k-automorphisms of F endowed with a natural topology. One of the purposes of this paper is to show that any…
