We classify the automorphisms of the (chiral) level-k affine SU(3) fusion rules, for any value of k, by looking for all permutations that commute with the modular matrices S and T. This can be done by using the arithmetic of the cyclotomic…
We show that an automorphism of a unital AF C*-algebra with the approximate Rohlin property has the Rohlin property. This generalizes a result of Kishimoto. Using this we show that the shift automorphism on the bilateral C*-algebra…
Let F_n be the free group of rank n, with generating set S=\{x_1,...,x_n\}. An automorphism \phi of F_n is called symmetric if for each 1\leq i\leq n, \phi(x_i) is conjugate to x_j or x_j^{-1} for some 1\leq j\leq n. Let \Sigma Aut(F_n) be…
We prove central limit theorems for the random walks on either the mapping class group of a closed, connected, orientable, hyperbolic surface, or on $\text{Out}(F_N)$, each time under a finite second moment condition on the measure (either…
We study birational automorphisms of algebraic varieties of bounded growth, i.e. such that the norms of the inverse images ${(f^n)}^* \colon \mathrm{NS}(X)\to \mathrm{NS}(X)$ of the powers of the automorphism $f\in\mathrm{Bir}(X)$ are…
In a pervious paper Weidmann shows that there a bound on the number of orbits of edges in a tree on which a finitely generated group acts $(k,C)$-acylindrically. In this paper we extend this result to actions which are $k$-acylindrical…
Let $R(\phi)$ be the number of $\phi$-conjugacy (or Reidemeister) classes of an endomorphism $\phi$ of a group $G$. We prove for several classes of groups (including polycyclic) that the number $R(\phi)$ is equal to the number of fixed…
We prove a special case of a dynamical analogue of the classical Mordell-Lang conjecture. In particular, let $\phi$ be a rational function with no superattracting periodic points other than exceptional points. If the coefficients of $\phi$…
First we show that any group of automorphisms of null-entropy of a projective hyperk\"ahler manifold $M$ is almost abelian of rank at most $\rho(M) - 2$. We then characterize automorphisms of a K3 surface with null-entropy and those with…
A concrete family of automorphisms alpha_n of the free group F_n is exhibited, for any n > 2, and the following properties are proved: alpha_n is irreducible with irreducible powers, has trivial fixed subgroup, and has 2n-1 attractive as…
Among (isotopy classes of) automorphisms of handlebodies those called irreducible (or generic) are the most interesting, analogues of pseudo-Anosov automorphisms of surfaces. We consider the problem of isotoping an irreducible automorphism…
We give upper bounds on the principal curvatures of a maximal surface of nonpositive curvature in three-dimensional Anti-de Sitter space, which only depend on the width of the convex hull of the surface. Moreover, given a quasisymmetric…
We show that if the complexity difference function p(n+1)-p(n) of a infinite minimal shift is bounded, then the the automorphism group of the one-sided shift is finite, and the automorphism group of the corresponding two-sided shift "modulo…
The two main theorems proved here are as follows: If $A$ is a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field, the identity component of the algebraic group of outer automorphisms of $A$ is invariant under derived equivalence.…
We show that every automorphism $\alpha$ of a free group $F_k$ of finite rank $k$ has {\it asymptotically periodic} dynamics on $F_k$ and its boundary $\partial F_k$: there exists a positive power $\alpha^q$ such that every element of the…
Let $M$ be a compact connected orientable Seifert manifold with hyperbolic orbifold $B_M$, and $f_{\pi}: \pi_1(M)\rightarrow\pi_1(M)$ be an automorphism induced by an orientation-reversing homeomorphism $f$ of $M$. We give a bound on the…
Multistable coupled map lattices typically support travelling fronts, separating two adjacent stable phases. We show how the existence of an invariant function describing the front profile, allows a reduction of the infinitely-dimensional…
For bounded pseudoconvex domains with finite type we give a precise description of the automorphism group: if an orbit of the automorphism group accumulates on at least two different points of the boundary, then the automorphism group has…
For convex domains with $C^{1,\epsilon}$ boundary we give a precise description of the automorphism group: if an orbit of the automorphism group accumulates on at least two different closed complex faces of the boundary, then the…
The main result of this paper is that the outer automorphism group of a free product of finite groups and cyclic groups is semistable at infinity (provided it is one ended) or semistable at each end. In a previous paper, we showed that the…
