We show that the axis bundle of a nongeometric fully irreducible outer automorphism admits a canonical "cubist" decomposition into branched cubes that fit together with special combinatorics. From this structure, we locate a canonical…

Let X be an irreducible smooth complex projective curve of genus g at least 4. Let M(r,\Lambda) be the moduli space of stable vector bundles over X or rank r and fixed determinant \Lambda, of degree d. We give a new proof of the fact that…

Consider a pseudogroup on (C,0) generated by two local diffeomorphisms having analytic conjugacy classes a priori fixed in Diff(C,0). We show that a generic pseudogroup as above is such that every point has (possibly trivial) cyclic…

Let f be a smooth diffeomorphism of the half-line fixing only the origin and Z^r_f its centralizer in the group of C^r diffeomorphisms. According to well-known results of Szekeres and Kopell, Z^1_f is always a one-parameter group, naturally…

We show that quandle coverings in the sense of Eisermann form a (regular epi)-reflective subcategory of the category of surjective quandle homomorphisms, both by using arguments coming from categorical Galois theory and by constructing…

We define a family of algebras \mathsf{FH}_{m} which generalise the Farahat-Higman algebra introduced in [FH59] by replacing the role of the center of the group algebra of the symmetric groups with centraliser algebras of symmetric groups.…

A group $\Gamma$ is said to be finitely non-co-Hopfian, or renormalizable, if there exists a self-embedding $\varphi \colon \Gamma \to \Gamma$ whose image is a proper subgroup of finite index. Such a proper self-embedding is called a…

We show that if $\Lambda$ is a codimension-one hyperbolic attractor for a $C^r$ diffeomorphism $f$, where $2\leq r\leq \infty$, and $f$ is not Anosov, then there is a neighborhood $\mathcal{U}$ of $f$ in $\mathrm{Diff}^r(M)$ and an open and…

In this paper we prove that every automorphism of the semigroup of invertible matrices with nonnegative elements over a linearly oredered associative ring on some specially defined subgroup concides with the composition of an inner…

We show that many normal subgroups of the braid group modulo its centre, and of the mapping class group of a sphere with marked points, have the property that their automorphism and abstract commensurator groups are mapping class groups of…

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 f be a smooth diffeomorphism of the half-line fixing only the origin and Z^r its centralizer in the group of C^r diffeomorphisms. According to well-known results of Szekeres and Kopell, Z^1 is a one-parameter group. On the other hand,…

For a ${\mathbb Z}^{d}$-topological dynamical system $(X, T, {\mathbb Z}^{d})$, an isomomorphism is a self-homeomorphism $\phi : X\to X$ such that for some matrix $M\in {\rm GL}(d,{\mathbb Z})$ and any ${n}\in {\mathbb Z}^{d}$, $\phi\circ…

This paper studies automorphisms and monomorphisms of direct products $\Gamma=\Gamma_1\times\cdots\times\Gamma_r$ of finitely generated virtually solvable minimax groups, a class containing all virtually polycyclic groups. Under an…

We study the stabilized automorphism group of a subshift of finite type with a certain gluing property called the eventual filling property, on a residually finite group $G$. We show that the stabilized automorphism group is simply…

We show the simplicity of the automorphism groups of the generic $n$-hypertournament and the semigeneric tournament, and determine the normal subgroups of the automorphism groups of several other ultrahomogeneous oriented graphs. We also…

A linear mapping $\phi$ from an algebra $\mathcal{A}$ into its bimodule $\mathcal M$ is called a centralizable mapping at $G\in\mathcal{A}$ if $\phi(AB)=\phi(A)B=A\phi(B)$ for each $A$ and $B$ in $\mathcal{A}$ with $AB=G$. In this paper, we…

Let $M=(M,\omega)$ be either the product $S^2\times S^2$ or the non-trivial $S^2$ bundle over $S^2$ endowed with any symplectic form $\omega$. Suppose a finite cyclic group $Z_n$ is acting effectively on $(M,\omega)$ through Hamiltonian…

In this paper we present some algebraic properties of subgroupoids and normal subgroupoids. We define the normalizer of a wide subgroupoid $\mathcal{H}$ and show that, as in the case of groups, the normalizer is the greatest wide…

We prove that if $T$ is an $\mathbb R$-tree with a minimal free isometric action of $F_N$, then the $Out(F_N)$-stabilizer of the projective class $[T]$ is virtually cyclic. For the special case where $T=T_+(\phi)$ is the forward limit tree…
