We study automorphisms $\alpha$ of a totally disconnected, locally compact group $G$ which are expansive in the sense that, for some identity neighbourhood $U$, the sets $\alpha^n(U)$ (for integers $n$) intersect in the trivial group.…
In this paper, we study free holomorphic functions on regular polyballs and provide analogues of several classical results from complex analysis such as: Abel theorem, Hadamard formula, Cauchy inequality, Schwarz lemma, and maximum…
It is well known that every finite subgroup of automorphism group of polynomial algebra of rank 2 over the field of zero characteristic is conjugated with a subgroup of linear automorphisms. We prove that it is not true for an arbitrary…
We introduce the notion of the $k$-closure of a group of automorphisms of a locally finite tree, and give several examples of the construction. We show that the $k$-closure satisfies a new property of automorphism groups of trees that…
In this paper, we determine the reduced automorphism groups of hyperelliptic curves of a small genus in characteristic $2$, when they are of $2$-rank $0$. Such a curve is an Artin-Schreier curve defined in the form $y^2-y=f(x)$ for a…
We construct new families of groups with property (T) and infinitely many alternating group quotients. One of those consists of subgroups of $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbf F_{p}[x_1, \dots, x_n])$ generated by a suitable set of tame automorphisms.…
We prove that a "random" free group outer automorphism is an ageometric fully irreducible outer automorphism whose ideal Whitehead graph is a union of triangles. In particular, we show that its attracting (and repelling) tree is a…
A rigid automorphism of a linking system is an automorphism which restricts to the identity on the Sylow subgroup. A rigid inner automorphism is conjugation by an element in the center of the Sylow subgroup. At odd primes, it is known that…
We present and discuss some open problems formulated by participants of the International Workshop "Knots, Braids, and Auto\-mor\-phism Groups" held in Novosibirsk, 2014. Problems are related to palindromic and commutator widths of groups;…
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 characterize all finite p-groups G of order p^n(n\leq 6), where p is a prime for n\leq 5 and an odd prime for n = 6, such that the center of the inner automorphism group of G is equal to the group of central automorphisms of G.
We compute the automorphism group of the dual complex $\mathsf{T}_{d, n}$ of the boundary divisor in the Kontsevich moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0, n}(\mathbb{P}^r, d)$. When $d \geq 2$, we find that $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathsf{T}_{d,…
We investigate fixed subgroups of automorphisms of generalised Baumslag-Solitar (GBS) groups. Our main results are for automorphisms leaving a Bass-Serre tree invariant, under the assumption that all edge stabilisers are strictly contained…
Let 1-> H -> G _> Q -> 1 be an exact sequence of groups. In the paper of R. Oliver and J. Ventura, TAMS,362(2009), the following exact sequence was developed for centric extensions, i.e the centralizer of H in G is contained in H, 0->…
Let T be a d-regular tree (d > 2) and A=Aut(T), its automorphism group. Let G be a group generated by n independent Haar-random elements of A. We show that almost surely, every nontrivial element of G has finitely many fixed points on T.
We study the Zariski topology of the ind-groups of polynomial and free associative algebras $\Aut(K[x_1,...,x_n])$ (which is equivalent to the automorphism group of the affine space $\Aut(K^n))$) and $\Aut(K< x_1,..., x_n>$ via…
Let $\C$ be a genus 2 curve defined over $k$, $char (k) =0$. If $\C$ has a $(3,3)$-split Jacobian then we show that the automorphism group $Aut(\C)$ is isomorphic to one of the following: $\bZ_2, V_4, D_8$, or $D_{12}$. There are exactly…
For an affine algebraic variety $X$, we study the subgroup $\mathrm{Aut}_{\text{alg}}(X)$ of the group of regular automorphisms $\mathrm{Aut}(X)$ of $X$ generated by all the connected algebraic subgroups. We prove that…
We show that every automorphism of the group $\mathcal{G}_n:= \textrm{Aut}(\mathbb{A}^n)$ of polynomial automorphisms of complex affine $n$-space $\mathbb{A}^n=\mathbb{C}^n$ is inner up to field automorphisms when restricted to the subgroup…
We establish that the set of local automorphisms $\textrm{LAut}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ is the group $\textrm{Aut}^{\pm}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ of all automorphisms and anti-automorphisms. For $n\geq 3$ we prove that anti-automorphisms are local…
