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 ${\mathfrak g}$ be a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $0$. A linear map $\varphi:{\mathfrak g}\to {\mathfrak g}$ is called a local automorphism if for every $x$ in…

For a map $\varphi : \varGamma \rightarrow \varGamma^{\prime}$ between metric graphs and an isometric action on $\varGamma$ by finite group $K$, $\varphi$ is a $K$-Galois covering on $\varGamma^{\prime}$ if $\varphi$ is a morphism, the…

We study the automorphism group of graphons (graph limits). We prove that after an appropriate "standardization" of the graphon, the automorphism group is compact. Furthermore, we characterize the orbits of the automorphism group on…

We consider a finite, connected and simple graph $\Gamma$ that admits a vertex-transitive group of automorphisms $G$. Under the assumption that, for all $x \in V(\Gamma)$, the local action $G_x^{\Gamma(x)}$ is the action of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a simple undirected graph on a finite vertex set and let $A$ be its adjacency matrix. Then $\Gamma$ is {\it singular} if $A$ is singular. The problem of characterising singular graphs is easy to state but very difficult to…

We study locally closed transformation monoids which contain the automorphism group of the random graph. We show that such a transformation monoid is locally generated by the permutations in the monoid, or contains a constant operation, or…

We define tropical rational function semifields $\overline{\boldsymbol{T}(X_1, \ldots, X_n)}$ and prove that a tropical curve $\varGamma$ is realized (except for points at infinity) as the congruence variety $V \subset \boldsymbol{R}^n$…

We consider when automorphisms of a graph can be induced by homeomorphisms of embeddings of the graph in a $3$-manifold. In particular, we prove that every automorphism of a graph is induced by a homeomorphism of some embedding of the graph…

The {\em topological symmetry group} of an embedding $\Gamma$ of an abstract graph $\gamma$ in $S^3$ is the group of automorphisms of $\gamma$ which can be realized by homeomorphisms of the pair $(S^3, \Gamma)$. These groups are motivated…

Let f: P^1 \to P^1 be a rational map with finite postcritical set P_f. Thurston showed that f induces a holomorphic map \sigma_f of the Teichmueller space T modelled on P_f to itself fixing the basepoint corresponding to the identity map…

Let $q$ be an algebraic Lie algebra and $q<m>$ a (generalised) Takiff algebra. Any finite order automorphism $\theta$ of $q$ induces an automorphisms of $q<m>$ of the same order, denoted $\Theta$. We study invariant-theoretic properties of…

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…

A metacyclic group $H$ can be presented as $\langle \alpha,\beta\mid \alpha^{n}=1, \ \beta^{m}=\alpha^{t}, \ \beta\alpha\beta^{-1}=\alpha^{r}\rangle$ for some $n,m,t,r$. Each endomorphism $\sigma$ of $H$ is determined by…

If $F$ is a polynomial automorphism over a finite field $\F_q$ in dimension $n$, then it induces a bijection $\pi_{q^r}(F)$ of $(\F_{q^r})^n$ for every $r\in \N^*$. We say that $F$ can be `mimicked' by elements of a certain group of…

Gauge theories are important descriptions for many physical phenomena and systems in quantum computation. Automorphism of gauge group naturally gives global symmetries of gauge theories. In this work we study such symmetries in gauge…

Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space. Consider the ortho-Grassmann graph $\Gamma^{\perp}_{k}(H)$ whose vertices are $k$-dimensional subspaces of $H$ (projections of rank $k$) and two subspaces are connected by an edge in this graph if they…

By an automorphism of a topological group G we mean an isomorphism of G onto itself which is also a homeomorphism. In this article, we study the automorphism group Aut(G) of a dense subgroup G of R^n, n>=1. We show that Aut(G) can be…

We classify the regular maps $\mathcal M$ which have automorphism groups $G$ acting faithfully and primitively on their vertices. As a permutation group $G$ must be of almost simple or affine type, with dihedral point stabilisers. We show…

The mapping class group of a surface with one boundary component admits numerous interesting representations including as a group of automorphisms of a free group and as a group of symplectic transformations. Insofar as the mapping class…
