We study the outer automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group $A_\Gamma$ with finite defining graph $\Gamma$. We construct a subnormal series for $Out(A_\Gamma)$ such that each consecutive quotient is either finite, free-abelian,…

We study fixed subgroups of automorphisms of any large-type Artin group $A_{\Gamma}$. We define a natural subgroup $\mathrm{Aut}_\Gamma(A_\Gamma)$ of $\mathrm{Aut}(A_{\Gamma})$, and for every $\gamma \in \mathrm{Aut}_\Gamma(A_\Gamma)$ we…

We describe the structure of virtually solvable normal subgroups in the automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group ${\rm Aut}(A_\Gamma)$. In particular, we prove that a finite normal subgroup in ${\rm Aut}(A_\Gamma)$ has at most order…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite graph and let $A(\Gamma)$ be the corresponding right-angled Artin group. From an arbitrary basis $\mathcal B$ of $H^1(A(\Gamma),\mathbb F)$ over an arbitrary field, we construct a natural graph $\Gamma_{\mathcal B}$…

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…

We study the (virtual) indicability of the automorphism group $Aut(A_\Gamma)$ of the right-angled Artin group $A_\Gamma$ associated to a simplicial graph $\Gamma$. First, we identify two conditions -- denoted (B1) and (B2) -- on $\Gamma$…

This paper gives a new explicit construction of the $\mathbb{Q}$-algebraic hull for virtually solvable groups $\Gamma$ of finite abelian ranks, taking into account the spectrum $S$ of the group $\Gamma$. As an application, we make a…

We introduce the palindromic automorphism group and the palindromic Torelli group of a right-angled Artin group A_G. The palindromic automorphism group Pi A_G is related to the principal congruence subgroups of GL(n,Z) and to the…

We study the dilatation of outer automorphisms of right-angled Artin groups. Given a right-angled Artin group defined on a simplicial graph: $A(\Gamma) = \langle V | E \rangle$ and an automorphism $\phi \in Out(A(\Gamma))$ there is a…

We compute the cohomology groups of the pure symmetric outer automorphism group $\Sigma$POut$(A_\Gamma)$ and the pure symmetric automorphism group $\Sigma$PAut$(A_\Gamma)$ of a right-angled Artin group $A_\Gamma$. Using the equivariant…

We construct the first known examples of infinite subgroups of the outer automorphism group of Out(A_Gamma), for certain right-angled Artin groups A_Gamma. This is achieved by introducing a new class of graphs, called focused graphs, whose…

A countable graph is ultrahomogeneous if every isomorphism between finite induced subgraphs can be extended to an automorphism. Woodrow and Lachlan showed that there are essentially four types of such countably infinite graphs: the random…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of order $q=p^h$ with $p>2$ prime and $h>1$, and let $\mathbb{F}_{\bar{q}}$ be a subfield of $\mathbb{F}_q$. From any two $\bar{q}$-linearized polynomials $L_1,L_2 \in \overline{\mathbb{F}}_q[T]$ of…

This article proposes an effective criterion for lifting automorphisms along regular coverings of graphs, with the covering transformation group being any finite abelian group.

Using the theory of group action, we first introduce the concept of the automorphism group of an exponential family or a graphical model, thus formalizing the general notion of symmetry of a probabilistic model. This automorphism group…

We generalize the peak-reduction algorithm (Whitehead's theorem) for free groups to a theorem about a general right-angled Artin group A_Gamma. As an application, we find a finite presentation for the automorphism group Aut A_Gamma that…

For a right-angled Artin group $A_\Gamma$, the untwisted outer automorphism group $U(A_\Gamma)$ is the subgroup of $Out(A_\Gamma)$ generated by all of the Laurence-Servatius generators except twists (where a {\em twist} is an automorphisms…

In this paper we are interested in lifting a prescribed group of automorphisms of a finite graph via regular covering projections. Here we describe with an example the problems we address and refer to the introductory section for the…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite simplicial graph with at least two vertices, and let $G(\Gamma)$ be the associated right-angled Artin group. We describe a locally compact group $\mathcal U$ containing $G(\Gamma)$ as a cocompact lattice. If…

We prove that every right-angled Artin group occurs as a finite-index subgroup of the outer automorphism group of another right-angled Artin group. We furthermore show that the latter group can be chosen in such a way that the quotient is…
