We classify the nonsplit extensions of elementary abelian $p$-groups by $PSL_2(q)$, with odd $p$ dividing $q-1$, for an irreducible induced action, calculate the relevant low-dimensional cohomology groups, and describe the automorphism…

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…

In this paper, we describe the automorphism group of semidirect product of two groups that fixes the non-normal subgroup of it. We have computed these automorphisms for the non-abelian metacyclic $p$-group and non-abelian $p$-groups $(p\ge…

In [Li and Chen, A new characterization of the simple group A_1(p^n), Sib. Math. J., 2012], it is proved that the simple group A_1(p^n) is uniquely determined by the set of orders of its maximal abelian subgroups. Also in [Momen and…

We give a new computer-assisted proof of the classification of maximal subgroups of the simple group ${}^2E_6(2)$ and its extensions by any subgroup of the outer automorphism group $S_3$. This is not a new result, but no earlier proof…

In this short note we prove that the finite non-abelian simple groups PSL(2,q), where q = 5,7, are determined by their posets of classes of isomorphic subgroups. In particular, this disproves the conjecture in the end of [5].

We continue classification of finite groups which can be used as symmetry group of the scalar sector of the four-Higgs-doublet model (4HDM). Our objective is to systematically construct non-abelian groups via the group extension procedure,…

In this work we study automorphisms of synchronous self-similar groups, the existence of extensions to automorphisms of the full group of automorphisms of the infinite rooted tree on which these groups act on. When they do exist, we obtain…

$\operatorname{SL}(2,q)$-unitals are unitals of order $q$ admitting a regular action of $\operatorname{SL}(2,q)$ on the complement of some block. They can be obtained from affine $\operatorname{SL}(2,q)$-unitals via parallelisms. We compute…

We determine the structure of automorphism group or each nonsplit metacyclic 2-group. This completes the work on automorphism groups of metacyclic $p$-groups.

In this paper, we investigate non-abelian extensions and inducibility of pairs of automorphisms of Lie triple systems. First, we introduce non-abelian cohomology groups and classify the non-abelian extensions in terms of non-abelian…

We apply results proved in [Li19] to the linear order expansions of non-trivial free homogeneous structures and the universal n-linear order for $n\geq 2$, and prove the simplicity of their automorphism groups.

In this note, we prove that if every character of a finite group $G$ fixed by an order-2 Galois automorphism has odd degree, then $G$ has a normal Sylow $2$-subgroup. On the way, we study extensions of characters of $GL_n(q)$, $q$ odd, to…

We analyze the group structures of two groups of order 1344 which are respectively non-split and split extensions of the elementary Abelian group of order 8 by its automorphism group PSL_2(7).They share the same character table. The group…

In this paper, we have computed the automorphism groups of all groups of order $p^{2}q^{2}$, where $p$ and $q$ are distinct primes.

Assume $G$ is a finite symplectic group $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}(q)$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of odd characteristic. We describe the action of the automorphism group $\mathrm{Aut}(G)$ on the set $\mathrm{Irr}(G)$ of ordinary irreducible…

We prove that every finite non-abelian simple group acts as the automorphism group of a chiral polyhedron, apart from the groups $PSL_2(q)$, $PSL_3(q)$, $PSU_3(q)$ and $A_7$.

We prove that the automorphism groups of simple polarized abelian varieties of odd prime dimension over finite fields are cyclic, and give a complete list of finite groups that can be realized as such automorphism groups.

Using cohomological methods, we prove the existence of a subgroup isomorphic to SL(2,q), q = -1 (mod 4), in the permutation module for PSL(2,q) in characteristic 2 that arises from the action on the projective line. A similar problem for q…

The aim of this paper is to explore non-abelian extensions of Bol algebras and to study the extensibility of a pair of automorphisms within these non-abelian extensions. We begin by researching non-abelian extensions of Bol algebras and…
