Automorphic loops are loops in which all inner mappings are automorphisms. This variety of loops includes groups and commutative Moufang loops. A half-isomorphism $f : G \longrightarrow K$ between multiplicative systems $G$ and $K$ is a…

Let $(G,*)$ and $(G',\cdot)$ be groupoids. A bijection $f: G \rightarrow G'$ is called a half-isomorphism if $f(x*y)\in\{f(x)\cdot f(y),f(y)\cdot f(x)\}$, for any $ x, y \in G$. A half-isomorphism of a groupoid onto itself is a…

We show that each half-automorphism of a finite automorphic Moufang loop is trivial. In general this is not true for finite left automorphic Moufang loops and for finite automorphic loops.

A Bol loop is a loop that satisfies the Bol identity $(xy.z)y=x(yz.y)$. If $L$ is a loop and $f:L\to L$ is a bijection such that $f(xy)\in\{f(x)f(y),f(y)f(x)\}$, for every $x$, $y\in L$, then $f$ is called a half-automorphism of $L$. In…

For any code loop $L$, we prove that the half-automorphism group of $L$ is the product of the automorphism group of $L$ by an elementary abelian $2-$group consisting of all half-automorphisms that acts as the identity on a fixed basis.…

Given a uniquely 2-divisible group $G$, we study a commutative loop $(G,\circ)$ which arises as a result of a construction in \cite{baer}. We investigate some general properties and applications of $\circ$ and determine a necessary and…

Suppose that R is an ordered ring, G_n(R) is a subsemigroup of $GL_n(R)$, consisting of all matrices with nonnegative elements. A.V. Mikhalev and M.A. Shatalova described all automorphisms of G_n(R), where R is a linearly ordered skewfield…

It is well known that if a group G factorizes as G = NH where H\leq G and N is normal in G then the group structure of G is determined by the subgroups H and N, the intersection of N with H and how H acts on N with a homomorphism f : H ->…

Let $F$ be a perfect field and $M^*(F)$ the nonassociative simple Moufang loop consisting of the units in the (unique) split octonion algebra $O(F)$ modulo the center. Then $Aut(M^*(F))$ is equal to $G_2(F) \rtimes Aut(F)$. In particular,…

Automorphic loops are loops in which all inner mappings are automorphisms. A large class of automorphic loops is obtained as follows: Let $m$ be a positive even integer, $G$ an abelian group, and $\alpha$ an automorphism of $G$ that…

We investigate Moufang loops which can be written as the semidirect product of a loop and a group. We also examine a particular class of loop extensions which arise as a result of a finite cyclic group acting as a group of semiautomorphisms…

An \emph{automorphic loop} (or \emph{A-loop}) is a loop whose inner mappings are automorphisms. Every element of a commutative A-loop generates a group, and $(xy)^{-1} = x^{-1}y^{-1}$ holds. Let $Q$ be a finite commutative A-loop and $p$ a…

Automorphic loops are loops in which all inner mappings are automorphisms. This variety of loops includes, for instance, groups and commutative Moufang loops. We study uniquely 2-divisible automorphic loops, particularly automorphic loops…

We define a variety of loops called semiautomorphic, inverse property loops that generalize Moufang and Steiner loops. We first show an equivalence between a previously studied variety of loops. Next we extend several known results for…

For a classical group $G$ over a field $F$ together with a finite-order automorphism $\theta$ that acts compatibly on $F$, we describe the fixed point subgroup of $\theta$ on $G$ and the eigenspaces of $\theta$ on the Lie algebra…

The partial automorphisms of a graph $X$ having $N$ vertices are the bijections $\sigma:I\to J$ with $I,J\subset\{1,\ldots,N\}$ which leave invariant the edges. These bijections form a semigroup $\widetilde{G}(X)$, which contains the…

We prove that if the squaring map in the factor loop of a Moufang loop $Q$ over its nucleus is surjective, then every half-isomorphism of $Q$ onto a Moufang loop is either an isomorphism or an anti-isomorphism. This generalizes all earlier…

In the paper we prove that every automorphism of a Chevalley group of type $F_4$ over a commutative local ring with~1/2 is standard, i. e., it is a composition of ring and inner automorphisms.

An adjoint Chevalley group of rank at least 2 over a rational algebra (or a similar ring), its elementary subgroup, and the corresponding Lie ring have the same automorphism group. These automorphisms are explicitly described.

In this paper is proved that the group of automorphisms of semigroup End(P[X]), if P is algebraically closed field, is generated by semi-inner automorphisms.
