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…
In the year 2000, Eric Egge introduced the generalized Terwilliger algebra $\mathcal T$ of a distance-regular graph $\Gamma$. For any vertex $x$ of $\Gamma,$ there is a surjective algebra homomorphism $\natural$ from $\mathcal T$ to the…
We compute the automorphism groups of finite and cofinite ind-grassmannians, as well as of the ind-variety of maximal flags indexed by Z_{>0}. We pay special attention to differences with the case of ordinary flag varieties.
Given a positive function on the set of edges of an arbitrary directed graph $E=(E^0,E^1)$, we define a one-parameter group of automorphisms on the C*-algebra of the graph $C^*(E)$, and study the problem of finding KMS states for this…
In this paper, we discuss automorphism related parameters of a graph associated to a finite vector space. The fixing neighborhood of a pair $(u,v)$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is the set of all those vertices $w$ of $G$, such that the orbits…
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…
The family of generalized Paley graphs of prime power order $q$ and degree $(q-1)/k$ is studied. It is shown that the automorphism group of a graph in this family is a subgroup of ${\mathrm{A\Gamma L}}(1,q)$ whenever $q$ is sufficiently…
Let $M$ be a compact two-dimensional manifold and, $f \in C^{\infty}(M,\mathbb{R})$ be a Morse function, and $\Gamma_f$ be its Kronrod-Reeb graph. Denote by $\mathcal{O}_{f}=\{f \circ h \mid h \in \mathcal{D}\}$ the orbit of $f$ with…
We generalize the enhanced power graph by replacing elements with classes under automorphisms. We show that the connectivity and diameter of this graph is similar to that of the enhanced power graph. We consider the universal vertices of…
In the framework of the problem of characterizing complete flag manifolds by their contractions, the complete flags of type $F_4$ and $G_2$ satisfy the property that any possible tower of Bott-Samelson varieties dominating them birationally…
Suppose $X_{1}, X_{2}$ are nilmanifolds and $\rho, \sigma$ are automorphism actions of a discrete group $\Gamma$ on $X_{1}$ and $X_{2}$ respectively. We show that if $(X_{1},\rho)$ and $(X_{2}, \sigma)$ satisfy certain additional conditions…
We develop a theory of generalized presentations of groups. We give generalized presentations of the symmetric group $\Sigma(X)$ for an arbitrary set $X$ and of the automorphism group of the free group of countable rank, $Aut(F_{\omega})$.
When dealing with symmetry properties of mathematical objects, one of the fundamental questions is to determine their full automorphism group. In this paper this question is considered in the context of even/odd permutations dichotomy. More…
We consider a class $G(S^n)$ of orientation preserving Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms of the sphere $S^{n}$ of dimension $n>3$ in assumption that invariant manifolds of different saddle periodic points have no intersection. We put in a…
Consider a smooth connected algebraic group $G$ acting on a normal projective variety $X$ with an open dense orbit. We show that Aut($X$) is a linear algebraic group if so is $G$; for an arbitrary $G$, the group of components of Aut($X$) is…
Let $\overline G$ be the wonderful compactification of a simple affine algebraic group $G$ of adjoint type defined over $\mathbb C.$ Let ${\overline T}\subset \overline G$ be the closure of a maximal torus $T\subset G.$ We prove that the…
We present a graph-theoretic model for dynamical systems $(X,\sigma)$ given by a surjective local homeomorphism $\sigma$ on a totally disconnected compact metrizable space $X$. In order to make the dynamics appear explicitly in the graph,…
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…
We show that if $K$ is an arbitrary field and $G$ is a finite group then there exists a curve over $K$ with automorphism group $G$. We also give a positive solution to the weak inverse Galois problem for function fields over an arbitrary…
In this paper we complete the classification of topological symmetry groups for complete graphs $K_n$ by characterizing which $K_n$ can have a cyclic group, a dihedral group, or a subgroup of $D_m \times D_m$ where $m$ is odd, as its…
