We show that if a field k contains sufficiently many elements(for instance, if k is infinite), and K is an algebraically closed field containing k, then every linear algebraic k-group over K is k-isomorphic to Aut(A\otimes_kK), where A is a…

In this paper, we discuss subgroups of the automorphism group of the polynomial ring in n variables over a field of characteristic zero. An automorphism F is said to be co-tame if the subgroup generated by F and affine automorphisms…

Let $A$ be a connected commutative $\C$-algebra with derivation $D$, $G$ a finite linear automorphism group of $A$ which preserves $D$, and $R=A^G$ the fixed point subalgebra of $A$ under the action of $G$. We show that if $A$ is generated…

For a finite alphabet $\mathcal{A}$ and shift $X\subseteq\mathcal{A}^{\mathbb{Z}}$ whose factor complexity function grows at most linearly, we study the algebraic properties of the automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(X)$. For such systems, we…

A {\sl parabolic cylinder} is an invariant, non-recurrent Fatou component $\Omega$ of an automorphism $F$ of $\mathbb C^2$ satisfying: (1) The closure of the $\omega$-limit set of $F$ on $\Omega$ contains an isolated fixed point, (2) there…

In a previous paper we have classified the smooth projective symmetric G-varieties with Picard number one (and G semisimple). In this work we give a geometrical description of such varieties. In particular, we determine their group of…

We conjecture a characterization of a cluster automorphism as an algebra homomorphism from the cluster algebra to itself that restricts to a bijection between two clusters. This formulation does not require that the map commutes with…

Given a smooth morphism $Y\to S$ and a proper morphism $P\to S$ of algebraic varieties we give a sufficient condition for extending an $S$-morphism $U\to P$, where $U$ is an open subset of $Y$, to an $S$-morphism $Y\to P$, analogous to…

Given a countable group $G$ and two subshifts $X$ and $Y$ over $G$, a continuous, shift-commuting map $\phi : X \to Y$ is called a homomorphism. Our main result states that if every finitely generated subgroup of $G$ has polynomial growth,…

We provide a treatment of isomorphism within a set-theoretic formulation of dependent type theory. Type expressions are assigned their natural set-theoretic compositional meaning. Types are divided into small and large types --- sets and…

We provide a criterion for certain algebraic objects over Jacobson schemes to be forms of each other based on their behaviour at closed fibres. This criterion permits to answer a question that I. Burban had asked the authors.

We give several results concerning the connected component ${\rm Aut}_X^0$ of the automorphism scheme of a proper variety $X$ over a field, such as its behaviour with respect to birational modifications, normalization, restrictions to…

We relate the graph isomorphism problem to the solvability of certain systems of linear equations with nonnegative variables. This version replaces the two previous versions of this paper.

We prove that for any automorphism $\alpha$ of a free group F of finite rank, one can efficiently compute a basis of the fixed point subgroup Fix(\alpha).

It is known that the canonical double cover of any connected nonbipartite graph have an automorphism group of the form $H \rtimes \mathbb{Z}_2$, where $H$ is the set of automorphism which preserve bipartite parts. We construct connected…

Let $I(X,R)$ be the incidence algebra of the preordered set $X$ over the ring $R$. In the case of a finite connected partially ordered set $X$, we prove that the subgroup of inner multiplicative automorphisms is a direct factor of the group…

This is a survey on the automorphism groups in various classes of affine algebraic surfaces and the algebraic group actions on such surfaces. Being infinite-dimensional, these automorphism groups share some important features of algebraic…

Let G be a finite simple graph with automorphism group A(G). Then a spanning subgraph U of G is a fixing subgraph of G if G contains exactly $| A(G)|/ | A(G) \cap A(U)| $ subgraphs isomorphic to U: the graph G must always contain at least…

We bound the number of fixed points of an automorphism of a real curve in terms of the genus and the number of connected components of the real part of the curve. Using this bound, we derive some consequences concerning the maximum order of…

Let $X$ be a smooth scheme over a finite field. It is conjectured that a convergent $F$-isocrystal on $X$ is overconvergent if its restriction to every curve contained in $X$ is overconvergent. Using the theory of \'etale and crystalline…
