In this paper, we study free pluriharmonic functions on noncommutative balls, and their boundary behavior. The main tools used in this study are certain noncommutative transforms which are introduced in the present paper and which…

We introduce and study noncommutative (or ``quantized'') versions of the algebras of holomorphic functions on the polydisk and on the ball in $\mathbb C^n$. Specifically, for each $q\in\mathbb C\setminus\{ 0\}$ we construct Fr\'echet…

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…

Let S be any orientable surface of infinite genus with a finite number of boundary components. In this work we consider the curve complex C(S), the nonseparating curve complex N(S) and the Schmutz graph G(S) of S. When all the topological…

We extend the classical theory of homotopical $\Sigma$-sets $\Sigma^n$ developed by Bieri, Neumann, Renz and Strebel for abstract groups, to $\Sigma$-sets $\Sigma_{\mathrm{top}}^n$ for locally compact Hausdorff groups. Given such a group…

We compute the groups $H^*(\mathrm{Aut}(F_n); M)$ and $H^*(\mathrm{Out}(F_n); M)$ in a stable range, where $M$ is obtained by applying a Schur functor to $H_\mathbb{Q}$ or $H^*_\mathbb{Q}$, respectively the first rational homology and…

Given a noncommutative (nc) variety $\mathfrak{V}$ in the nc unit ball $\mathfrak{B}_d$, we consider the algebra $H^\infty(\mathfrak{V})$ of bounded nc holomorphic functions on $\mathfrak{V}$. We investigate the problem of when two algebras…

In a recent paper, we introduced and studied the class of admissible noncommutative domains $D_{g^{-1}}(H)$ in $B(H)^n$ associated with admissible free holomorphic functions $g$ in noncommutative indeterminates $Z_1,\ldots, Z_n$. Each such…

Let $k$ be an algebraically-closed field, and $B$ a unital, associative $k$-algebra with $n := \dim_kB < \infty$. For each $1 \le m \le n$, the collection of all $m$-dimensional subalgebras of $B$ carries the structure of a projective…

Let $A_n$ be an $n$-dimensional algebra with zero multiplication over a field $K$ of characteristic $0$. Then its universal (multiplicative) enveloping algebra $U_n$ in the variety of left-symmetric algebras is a homogeneous quadratic…

For each $\mathscr{B}$-free subshift given by $\mathscr{B}=\{2^ib_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$, where $\{b_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$ is a set of pairwise coprime odd numbers greater than one, it is shown that its automorphism group consists solely of…

For a H\'enon map of the form $H(x, y) = (y, p(y) - ax)$, where $p$ is a polynomial of degree at least two and $a \not= 0$, it is known that the sub-level sets of the Green's function $G^+_H$ associated with $H$ are Short $\mathbb C^2$'s.…

Artin's representation is an injective homomorphism from the braid group $B_n$ on $n$ strands into $\operatorname{Aut}\mathbb{F}_n$, the automorphism group of the free group $\mathbb{F}_n$ on $n$ generators. The representation induces maps…

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…

A detailed proof is given of a theorem describing the centraliser of a transitive permutation group, with applications to automorphism groups of objects in various categories of maps, hypermaps, dessins, polytopes and covering spaces, where…

Let $\mathscr{T}(L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T}))$ be the Toeplitz algebra, that is, the $C^*$-algebra generated by the set $\{T_{\phi} : \phi\in L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T})\}$. Douglas's theorem on symbol map states that there exists a $C^*$-algebra…

Last years a number of papers were devoted to describing automorphisms of semigroups of endomorphisms of free finitely generated universal algebras of some varieties: groups, semigroups, associative commutative algebras, inverse semigroups,…

Certain subgroups of the groups $Aut(F_n)$ of automorphisms of a free group $F_n$ are considered. Comparing Alexander polynomials of two poly-free groups $Cb_4^+$ and $P_4$ we prove that these groups are not isomorphic, despite the fact…

Let $F_n$ be the free group on $n\ge 2$ elements and $\A(F_n)$ its group of automorphisms. In this paper we present a rich collection of linear representations of $\A(F_n)$ arising through the action of finite index subgroups of it on…

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…
