An abstract polytope is chiral if its automorphism group has two orbits on the flags, such that adjacent flags belong to distinct orbits. There are still few examples of chiral polytopes, and few constructions that can create chiral…

The goal of this paper is to present a number of problems about automorphism groups of nonpositively curved polyhedral complexes and their lattices, meant to highlight possible directions for future research.

We prove that every finite group is the automorphism group of a finite abstract polytope isomorphic to a face-to-face tessellation of a sphere by topological copies of convex polytopes. We also show that this abstract polytope may be…

We describe the explicit computation of a family of 4-branch-point rational functions of degree 63 with monodromy group PSL(6,2). This, in particular, negatively answers a question by J. K\"onig whether there exists a such a function with…

We investigate similarities between the category of vector spaces and that of polytopal algebras, containing the former as a full subcategory. In Section 2 we introduce the notion of a polytopal Picard group and show that it is trivial for…

We investigate the properties of binary linear codes of even length whose permutation automorphism group is a cyclic group generated by an involution. Up to dimension or co-dimension $4$, we show that there is no quasi group code whose…

We completely determine the autotopism group of the (as of now) largest family of commutative semifields found by G\"olo\u{g}lu and K\"olsch. Since this family of semifields generally does not have large nuclei, this process is considerably…

Juhasz has proved that the automorphism group of a group G of maximal class of order p^n, with p\ge 5 and n>p+1, has order divisible by $p^{\lceil(3n-2p+5)/2\rceil}$. We show that by translating the problem in terms of derivations, the…

In this paper we consider some classical varieties of linear algebras over the field which has characteristic 0. For every considered variety we take a category of the finite generated free algebras of this variety. And for every this…

We show that all classes that are neither semisimple nor unipotent in finite simple Chevalley or Steinberg groups different from $PSL_n(q)$ collapse (i.e. are never the support of a finite-dimensional Nichols algebra). As a consequence, we…

Every commutator preserving bijection of the unipotent radical $Up(2n, R)$ of the Borel subgroup of the classical symplectic group of rank at least 4 over a field $F$ such that $6F=F$ is shown to be the composition of a standard…

Many common finite p-groups admit automorphisms of order coprime to p, and when p is odd, it is reasonably difficult to find finite p-groups whose automorphism group is a p-group. Yet the goal of this paper is to prove that the automorphism…

We apply spectral analysis of quotients of the Bruhat-Tits buildings of type $\tilde{A}_{d-1}$ to construct isospectral non-isomorphic Cayley graphs of the finite simple groups $\operatorname{PSL}_d({\mathbb F}_q)$ for every $d \geq 5$ ($d…

We construct the finite-dimensional continuous complex representations of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over compact discrete valuation rings of even residual characteristic. We also prove that the complex group algebras of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over finite…

Regular maps on linear fractional groups $PSL(2,q)$ and $PGL(2,q$) have been studied for many years and the theory is well-developed, including generating sets for the asscoiated groups. This paper studies the properties of self-duality,…

We prove that the group of automorphisms of the Lie algebra $\Der_K (P_n)$ of derivations of a polynomial algebra $P_n=K[x_1,..., x_n]$ over a field of characteristic zero is canonically isomorphic to the the group of automorphisms of the…

In this article we prove that the full automorphism group of a cyclic $p$-gonal pseudo-real Riemann surface of genus $g$ is either a semidirect product $C_{n}\ltimes C_{p}$ or a cyclic group, where $p$ is a prime $>2$ and $g>(p-1)^{2}$. We…

Using the Guirardel-Levitt outer space of a free product, we prove that the outer automorphism group of the outer automorphism group of the universal Coxeter group of rank $n \geq 5$ is trivial, and that it is a cyclic group of order 2 if…

We compute the characters of real irreducible representations of SL(2,q), the special linear group on q letters, for an odd prime $q$. Moreover, we give the dimensions of these irreducible representations under the actions of cyclic…

While lattices in semi-simple Lie groups are studied very well, only little is known about discrete subgroups of infinite covolume. The main class of examples are Schottky groups. Here we investigate some new examples. We consider subgroups…
