We prove that an outer automorphism of the free group is exponentially growing if and only if it induces an outer automorphism of infinite order of free Burnside groups with sufficiently large odd exponent.
It is already shown that a Boolean function for a NP-complete problem can be computed by a polynomial-sized circuit if its variables have enough number of automorphisms. Looking at this previous study from the different perspective gives us…
Totally symmetric sets are a recently introduced tool for studying homomorphisms between groups. In this paper, we give full classifications of totally symmetric sets in certain families of groups and bound their sizes in others. As a…
We prove that every infinite sequence of skew-symmetric or symmetric matrices M_1, M_2, ... over a fixed finite field must have a pair M_i, M_j (i<j) such that M_i is isomorphic to a principal submatrix of the Schur complement of a…
We prove that every finite group is the automorphism group of a finite abstract polytope isomorphic to a face-to-face tessellation of a sphere by topological copies of convex polytopes. We also show that this abstract polytope may be…
We establish two consequences of the Kawamata--Morrison--Totaro cone conjecture, and prove them unconditionally in all dimensions. First, for a K-trivial variety, the natural action of its automorphism group on the set of ample divisor…
We show that all Chein automorphisms (or one-row transformations) of lower degree $\geq 4$ of a free metabelian Lie algebra $M_n$ of rank $n\geq 4$ over an arbitrary field $K$ of characteristic $\neq 3$ are tame. We then show that all…
The Buratti-Horak-Rosa Conjecture concerns the possible multisets of edge-labels of a Hamiltonian path in the complete graph with vertex labels $0, 1, \ldots, {v-1}$ under a particular induced edge-labeling. The conjecture has been shown to…
We investigate the possible structures imposed on a finite group by its possession of an automorphism sending a large fraction of the group elements to their cubes, the philosophy being that this should force the group to be, in some sense,…
We characterise connected cubic graphs admitting a vertex- transitive group of automorphisms with an abelian normal subgroup that is not semiregular. We illustrate the utility of this result by using it to prove that the order of a…
We classify isotopy classes of automorphisms (self-homeomorphisms) of 3-manifolds satisfying the Thurston Geometrization Conjecture. The classification is similar to the classification of automorphisms of surfaces developed by Nielsen and…
In this paper, we prove that each automorphism of a surface braid group is induced by a homeomorphism of the underlying surface, provided that this surface is a closed, connected, orientable surface of genus at least 2, and the number of…
In this paper, we discuss the inducibility problem for automorphisms of multiplicative Lie algebra extensions and show that obstruction to the inducibility of pairs lies in the second cohomology group of multiplicative Lie algebras. We also…
An automorphism of a group is said to be normal if it preserves each normal subgroup. In this paper, we determine the normal automorphisms of a free metabelian nilpotent group.
The problem of finding upper bounds for minimal vertex number of graphs with a given automorphism group is addressed in this article for the case of cyclic $2$-groups. We show that for any natural $n\ge 2$ there is an undirected graph…
We examine properties of generic automorphisms of the random poset, with the goal of explicitly characterizing them. We associate to each automorphism an auxiliary first-order structure, consisting of the random poset equipped with an…
An automorphism of a building is called uniclass if the Weyl distance between any chamber and its image lies in a unique (twisted) conjugacy class of the Coxeter group. In a previous paper we characterised uniclass automorphisms of…
In this survey article, we try to summarize the known results towards the long-standing non-inner automorphism conjecture, which states that every finite non-abelian $p$-group has a non-inner automorphism of order $p$.
We define a family of polynomial ring homomorphisms generalizing the well-known Nagata automorphism. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions under which these homomorphisms are automorphisms, and verify that they satisfy the…
A structure ${\mathbb Y}$ of a relational language $L$ is called almost chainable iff there are a finite set $F \subset Y$ and a linear order $<$ on the set $Y\setminus F$ such that for each partial automorphism $\varphi$ (i.e., local…
