Axial algebras are a class of commutative non-associative algebras which have a natural group of automorphisms, called the Miyamoto group. The motivating example is the Griess algebra which has the Monster sporadic simple group as its…

The main result of this paper is a complete classification of the outer automorphism groups of two-generator, one-relator groups with torsion. To this classification we apply recent algorithmic results of Dahmani--Guirardel, which yields an…

Permutative automorphisms of the Cuntz algebras $\mathcal{O}_n$ are in bijection with the stable permutations of $[n]^t$. They are also the elements of the reduced Weyl group of $Aut(\mathcal{O}_n)$. In this paper, we characterize the…

In this article, we study the outer automorphism group of a group G decomposed as a finite graph of group with finite edge groups and finitely generated vertex groups with at most one end. We show that Out(G) is essentially obtained by…

This research was motivated by universal algebraic geometry. One of the central questions of universal algebraic geometry is: when two algebras have the same algebraic geometry? For answer of this question (see [Pl],[Ts]) we must consider…

We show that the morphisms from the braid group with n strands in the mapping class group of a surface with a possible non empty boundary, assuming that its genus is smaller or equal to n/2 are either cyclic morphisms (their images are…

For every positive integer $n$, we construct, using algebraic groups, an infinite family of irreducible algebraic varieties $X$,whose automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(X)$ contains the automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(F_n)$ of a free group $F_n$…

We show that any isomorphism between mapping class groups of orientable infinite-type surfaces is induced by a homeomorphism between the surfaces. Our argument additionally applies to automorphisms between finite-index subgroups of these…

In [2], an exhaustive construction is achieved for the class of all 4-dimensional unital division algebras over finite fields of odd order, whose left nucleus is not minimal and whose automorphism group contains Klein's four-group. We…

We show that the outer automorphism group of a polycyclic-by-finite group is an arithmetic group. This result follows from a detailed structural analysis of the automorphism groups of such groups. We use an extended version of the theory of…

We consider the action of an irreducible outer automorphism $\phi$ on the closure of Culler--Vogtmann Outer space. This action has north-south dynamics and so, under iteration, points converge exponentially to $[T^\phi_+]$. For each $N \geq…

In this note, we establish an equivalence of categories between the category of all eight-dimensional composition algebras with any given quadratic form $n$ over a field $k$ of characteristic not two, and a category arising from an action…

We show that if $G$ is a finite group whose Sylow $2$-subgroups are wreathed, then the intersection $\Outc(G) \cap \OutCol(G)$ has odd order, where $\Outc(G)$ and $\OutCol(G)$ denote the class-preserving and Coleman outer automorphism…

We present norm criteria for the existence of anti-automorphisms, as well as explicit constructions of anti-automorphisms, both on cyclic and generalized cyclic algebras. Our approach describes anti-automorphisms as polynomial maps and…

We show that the automorphism group of affine n-space $A^n$ determines $A^n$ up to isomorphism: If $X$ is a connected affine variety such that $Aut(X)$ is isomorphic to $Aut(A^n)$ as ind-groups, then $X$ is isomorphic to $A^n$ as a variety.…

We study algebra endomorphisms and derivations of some localized down-up algebras $\A$. First, we determine all the algebra endomorphisms of $\A$ under some conditions on $r$ and $s$. We show that each algebra endomorphism of $\A$ is an…

For each closed orientable surface we introduce a simplical complex with some additional structure which is a version of the complex of curves of this surface adjusted to investigation of its Torelli group. We call this complex the Torelli…

In this paper, we discuss the inducibility problem for automorphisms of multiplicative Lie algebra extensions and show that obstruction to the inducibility of pairs lies in the second cohomology group of multiplicative Lie algebras. We also…

We prove a theorem of Tits type about automorphism groups for compact Kahler manifolds, which has been conjectured in the paper [KOZ].

Let $T$ be a locally finite tree all of whose vertices have valency at least $6$. We classify, up to isomorphism, the closed subgroups of $\mathrm{Aut}(T)$ acting $2$-transitively on the set of ends of $T$ and whose local action at each…
