We study finite groups $G$ such that the maximum length of an orbit of the natural action of the automorphism group $\operatorname{Aut}(G)$ on $G$ is bounded from above by a constant. Our main results are the following: Firstly, a finite…

We give elementary proofs of the following two theorems on automorphisms of a finite group G: (1) An automorphism of G is inner if and only if it extends to an automorphism of every finite group containing G. (2) There exists a finite…

We describe the group of braided tensor autoequivalences of the Drinfeld centre of a finite group $G$ isomorphic to the identity functor (just as a functor) as a semi-direct product $Aut^1_{br}(\Z(G))\ \simeq\ Out_{2-cl}(G)\ltimes B(G)\ $…

Suppose, $G$ is a residually finite group of finite upper rank admitting an automorphism $\varphi$ with finite Reidemeister number $R(\varphi)$ (the number of $\varphi$-twisted conjugacy classes). We prove that such $G$ is soluble-by-finite…

W.H.~Mills has determined, for a finitely generated abelian group $G$, the regular subgroups $N \cong G$ of $S(G)$, the group of permutations on the set $G$, which have the same holomorph of $G$, that is, such that $N_{S(G)}(N) =…

Suppose that a metacyclic Frobenius group $FH$, with kernel $F$ and complement $H$, acts by automorphisms on a finite group $G$, in such a way that $C_G(F)$ is trivial and $C_G(H)$ is nilpotent. It is known that $G$ is nilpotent and its…

Bergman has given the following abstract characterisation of the inner automorphisms of a group $G$: they are exactly those automorphisms of $G$ which can be extended functorially along any homomorphism $G \rightarrow H$ to an automorphism…

This paper determines the structure of the automorphism group of the unit group \((U_{p^e}, \cdot)\) and the monoid \((\mathbb{Z}/p^e \mathbb{Z}, \cdot)\). For \( e \geq 5 \), we establish that the automorphism group \( \Aut(U_{2^e}, \cdot)…

Let $G$ be a group. The orbits of the natural action of $Aut(G)$ on $G$ are called "automorphism orbits" of $G$, and the number of automorphism orbits of $G$ is denoted by $\omega(G)$. In this paper we prove that if $G$ is an FC-group with…

Let X be a compact Kaehler manifold of complex dimension n. Let G be a connected solvable subgroup of the automorphism group Aut(X), and let N(G) be the normal subgroup of G of elements of null entropy. One of the goals of this paper is to…

Let $G$ be a (compact) special group in the sense of Haglund and Wise. We show that ${\rm Out}(G)$ is finitely generated, and provide a virtual generating set consisting of Dehn twists and ``pseudo-twists''. We exhibit instances where Dehn…

We study the finitely generated Hausdorff spectrum of spinal automorphism groups acting on rooted trees. Given any $\alpha \in [0,1]$, we construct a branch group $G_\alpha$ such that $G_\alpha$ has a finitely generated subgroup $H$ where…

Automorphisms of the quantum Schubert cell algebras ${\mathcal U}_q^\pm[w]$ of De Concini, Kac, Procesi and Lusztig and their restrictions to some key invariant subalgebras are studied. We develop some general rigidity results and apply…

For $R_1,R_2,R_3,\dots$ a family of non isomorphic rings (or algebras) having each only 2 idempotents ($1$ and $0$), we classify up to isomorphism the rings (or algebras) obtained by taking products of powers of the different $R_i$. We show…

Let $R$ be a commutative $k-$algebra over a field $k$. Assume $R$ is a noetherian, infinite, integral domain. The group of $k-$automorphisms of $R$,i.e.$Aut_k(R)$ acts in a natural way on $(R-k)$.In the first part of this article, we study…

For each finite group G, we define the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group of G, denoted GT(G), and explore its properties. The theory of dessins d'enfants shows that the inverse limit of GT(G) as G varies can be identified with a group…

The inner automorphisms of a group G can be characterized within the category of groups without reference to group elements: they are precisely those automorphisms of G that can be extended, in a functorial manner, to all groups H given…

Let K be a function field with constant field k and let "infinity" be a fixed place of K. Let C be the Dedekind domain consisting of all those elements of K which are integral outside "infinity". The group G=GL_2(C) is important for a…

Let $\Aut(G)$ denote the group of (bi-)continuous automorphisms %and $\Out(G)$ the outer automorphism group of a non-Archimedean Polish group~$G$. We show that for any such $G$ with an invariant countable basis of open subgroups, the group…

It was observed recently that for a fixed finite group $G$, the set of all Drinfeld centres of $G$ twisted by 3-cocycles form a group, the so-called group of modular extensions (of the representation category of $G$), which is isomorphic to…
