Let $F\_n$ be the free group on $n$ generators. Consider the group $IA\_n$ of automorphisms of $F\_n$ acting trivially on its abelianization. There are two canonical filtrations on $IA\_n$: the first one is its lower central series…

First, we study a descending filtration of the ring of Fricke characters of a free group consisting of ideals on which the automorphism group of a free group acts. Then using it, we define a descending filtration of the IA-automorphism…

Let G be a real semisimple Lie group with no compact factors and finite centre, and let $\Lambda$ be a lattice in G. Suppose that there exists a homomorphism from $\Lambda$ to the outer automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group…

In the present work we investigate a subgroup $I_n$ of the McCool group $M_n$. We show that $I_n$ has solvable conjugacy problem. Next, we investigate its Lie Algebra gr($I_n$) and we find a presentation for it. Finally we show that…

Suppose that a Lie algebra $L$ admits a finite Frobenius group of automorphisms $FH$ with cyclic kernel $F$ and complement $H$ of order 2, such that the fixed-point subalgebra of $F$ is trivial and the fixed-point subalgebra of $H$ is…

The rational homology of the IA-automorphism group $\operatorname{IA}_n$ of the free group $F_n$ is still mysterious. We study the quotient of the rational homology of $\operatorname{IA}_n$ that is obtained as the image of the map induced…

We describe, up to degree equal to the rank, the Lie algebra associated with the automorphism group of a free group. We compute in particular the ranks of its homogeneous components, and their structure as modules over the linear group.…

In this paper, we generalize the tools that were introduced in [Dar19b] in order to study the Andreadakis problem for subgroups of IAn. In particular, we study the behaviour of the Andreadakis problem when we add inner automorphisms to a…

For a positive integer $n$, with $n \geq 2$, let $M_n$ be a free metabelian group of rank $n$. For $c \in \mathbb{N}$, let $\gamma_c(M_n)$ be the $c$-th term of the lower central series of $M_n$. For $c \geq 2$, let ${\rm I}_{c}{\rm…

The IA-automorphism group is the group of automorphisms of the free group $F_n$ that act trivially on the abelianization $F_n^{\mathrm{ab}}$. This group is in many ways analoguous to Torelli groups of surfaces and their higher dimensional…

The Johnson filtration of the automorphism group of a free group is composed of those automorphisms which act trivially on nilpotent quotients of the free group. We compute cohomology classes as follows: (i) we analyze analogous classes for…

The IA-automorphism group $\operatorname{IA}_n$ of the free group $F_n$ of rank $n$ is a normal subgroup of the automorphism group $\operatorname{Aut}(F_n)$ of $F_n$. We study the Albanese homology of $\operatorname{IA}_n$, which is the…

We study an analogue of the Andreadakis-Johnson filtration for automorphism groups of free algebras and introduce the notion of tangent Lie algebras for certain automorphism groups, defined as subalgebras of the Lie algebra of derivations.…

Borel's stability and vanishing theorem gives the stable cohomology of $\mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{Z})$ with coefficients in algebraic $\mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{Z})$-representations. By combining the Borel theorem with the Hochschild-Serre spectral…

Let $\phi \colon \Gamma_2 \rightarrow \Gamma_1$ be a harmonic morphism of connected graphs. We show that an arithmetical structure on $\Gamma_1$ can be pulled back via $\phi$ to an arithmetical structure on $\Gamma_2$. We then show that…

We introduce and study certain hyperbolic versions of automorphic Lie algebras related to the modular group. Let $\Gamma$ be a finite index subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$ with an action on a complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak…

We classify gradings by arbitrary abelian groups on the classical simple Lie and Jordan superalgebras $Q(n)$, $n \geq 2$, over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $2$ (and not dividing $n+1$ in the Lie case): fine…

The automorphism group of a curve is studied from the viewpoint of the canonical embedding and Petri's theorem. A criterion for identifying the automorphism group as an algebraic subgroup the general linear group is given. Furthermore the…

Let F_n be the free group on n generators. Define IA_n to be group of automorphisms of F_n that act trivially on first homology. The Johnson homomorphism in this setting is a map from IA_n to its abelianization. The first goal of this paper…

The automorphism group $\operatorname{Aut}(F_n)$ of the free group $F_n$ acts on a space $A_d(n)$ of Jacobi diagrams of degree $d$ on $n$ oriented arcs. We study the $\operatorname{Aut}(F_n)$-module structure of $A_d(n)$ by using two…
