We prove the equality $\cat(\phi)=\cd(\phi)$ for homomorphisms $\phi:\Gamma\to \Lambda$ between finitely generated abelian groups $\Gamma$ and $\Lambda$, where $\phi(T(\Gamma))=0$ for the torsion subgroups $T(\Gamma)$ of $\Gamma$.

The group of automorphisms of the Brandt $\lambda^0$-extension $B^0_\lambda(S)$ of an arbitrary monoid $S$ with zero is described. In particular we show that the group of automorphisms $\mathbf{Aut}(B_{\lambda}^0(S))$ of $B_{\lambda}^0(S)$…

We give an accessible and modern description of the automorphisms of a finite abelian group $G$. Included is an explicit formula for the cardinality of $Aut(G)$.

Let $G$ be a connected real Lie group with associated Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, and let ${\rm Aut}(G)$ be the group of (Lie) automorphisms of $G$. It is noted here that, given a super-solvable subgroup $\Gamma\subset {\rm Aut}(G)$ of…

When $\pi:\widetilde{\Sigma}\rightarrow D^2$ is a cover of the disc branched over $n$ marked points, the braid group $B_n$ acts on the disc by homeomorphisms fixing the marked points setwise. A braid $\beta$ \textit{lifts} if there is a…

We obtain a number of analogues of the classical results of the 1960s on the general linear groups $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbf Z)$ and special linear groups $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbf Z)$ for the automorphism group $\Gamma_A=\mathrm{Aut}(A)$ of an…

The automorphism group Aut(X) of an affine variety X is an ind-group. Its Lie algebra is canonically embedded into the Lie algebra VF(X) of vector fields on X. We study the relations between subgroups of Aut(X) and Lie subalgebras of VF(X).…

For a finite simplicial graph $\Gamma$, let $A(\Gamma)$ denote the right-angled Artin group on $\Gamma$. Recently Kim and Koberda introduced the extension graph $\Gamma^e$ for $\Gamma$, and established the Extension Graph Theorem: for…

We discuss the possibility of lifting finite subgroups, and in particular finite cyclic subgroups, with respect to the canonical projections between automorphism and outer automorphism groups of free groups, surface groups and their…

Using ideas from 3-manifolds, Hatcher--Wahl defined a notion of automorphism groups of free groups with boundary. We study their Torelli subgroups, adapting ideas introduced by Putman for surface mapping class groups. Our main results show…

Any complex-analytic vector bundle $\mathbb E$ admits naturally defined homotheties $\phi_{\alpha}$, $\alpha\in \mathbb C^*$, i.e. $\phi_{\alpha}$ is the multiplication of a local section by a complex number $\alpha$. We investigate the…

We compute explicitly the automorphism and outer automorphism group of all large-type free-of-infinity Artin groups. Our strategy involves reconstructing the associated Deligne complexes in a purely algebraic manner, i.e. in a way that is…

This paper has three main goals. First, we study fixed subgroups of automorphisms of right-angled Artin and Coxeter groups. If $\varphi$ is an untwisted automorphism of a RAAG, or an arbitrary automorphism of a RACG, we prove that ${\rm…

The left-ideal relation graph on a ring $R$, denoted by $\overrightarrow{\Gamma_{l-i}}(R)$, is a directed graph whose vertex set is all the elements of $R$ and there is a directed edge from $x$ to a distinct $y$ if and only if the left…

We produce first examples of p-local height three TAF homology theories. The corresponding one-dimensional formal groups arise as split summands of the formal groups of certain abelian three-folds, the Shimura variety of which can be…

We describe inertial endomorphisms of an abelian group $A$, that is endomorphisms $\varphi$ with the property $|(\varphi(X)+X)/X|<\infty$ for each $X\le A$. They form a ring containing multiplications, the so-called finitary endomorphisms…

We describe an underlying right angled building structure of any graph product of buildings. We describe the automorphism group of the graph product of buildings. We show that the notion of generalized graph product of a collection of…

We give a condition on the defining graph of a right-angled Artin group which implies its automorphism group is virtually indicable, that is, it has a finite-index subgroup that admits a homomorphism onto $\Z$. We use this as part of a…

A palindrome in a free group F_n is a word on some fixed free basis of F_n that reads the same backwards as forwards. The palindromic automorphism group \Pi A_n of the free group F_n consists of automorphisms that take each member of some…

We observe that, for each positive integer n > 2, each of the Artin groups of finite type A_n, B_n=C_n, and affine type \tilde A_{n-1} and \tilde C_{n-1} is a central extension of a finite index subgroup of the mapping class group of the…
