We look at the automorphisms of Thompson type groups of piecewise linear homeomorphisms of the real line or circle that use slopes that are integral powers of a fixed integer n with n>2. We show that large numbers of "exotic" automorphisms…

By building some suitable strictly ergodic models, we prove that for an ergodic system $(X,\mathcal{X},\mu, T)$, $d\in{\mathbb N}$, $f_1, \ldots, f_d \in L^{\infty}(\mu)$, the averages $$\frac{1}{N^2} \sum_{(n,m)\in [0,N-1]^2}…

We present mixing ergodic automorphisms of a space with sigma-finite measure whose symmetric tensor squares have simple spectra. This property is of interest in connection with dynamical spectral problems of A.N. Kolmogorov and V.A.…

We provide the dictionary between four-dimensional gauged supergravity and type II compactifications on $\mathbb{T}^6$ with metric and gauge fluxes in the absence of supersymmetry breaking sources, such as branes and orientifold planes.…

In [2] Su Gao proves that the following are equivalent for a countable $M$ (cf. theorem 1.2 too): (I)There is an uncountable model of the Scott sentence of $M$. (II) There exists some $j\in \overline{Aut(M)}\setminus Aut(M)$, where…

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 $p$.

If a finitely generated semigroup S has a hopfian (meaning: every surjective endomorphism is an automorphism) cofinite subsemigroup T then S is hopfian too. This no longer holds if S is not finitely generated. There exists a finitely…

We consider infinite measure-preserving non-primitive self-similar tiling systems in Euclidean space $\mathbb R^d$. We establish the second-order ergodic theorem for such systems, with exponent equal to the Hausdorff dimension of a…

Let $(X_{A},\sigma_{A})$ be a shift of finite type and $\text{Aut}(\sigma_{A})$ its corresponding automorphism group. Associated to $\phi \in \text{Aut}(\sigma_{A})$ are certain Lyapunov exponents $\alpha^{-}(\phi), \alpha^{+}(\phi)$ which…

We show that Sarnak's conjecture on M\"obius disjointness holds in every uniquely ergodic modelof a quasi-discrete spectrum automorphism. A consequence of this result is that, for each non constant polynomial $P\in\R[x]$ with irrational…

Let $Y$ be a compact metric space, $G$ be a group acting by transformations on $Y$. For any infinite subset $A\subset Y$, we study the density of $gA$ for $g\in G$ and quantitative density of the set $\displaystyle{\bigcup_{g\in G_n}gA}$ by…

We describe the automorphism group of the endomorphism semigroup $\End(K[x_1,...,x_n])$ of ring $K[x_1,...,x_n]$ of polynomials over an {\it arbitrary} field $K$. A similar result is obtained for automorphism group of the category of…

We provide the complete classification of seven-dimensional manifolds endowed with a closed non-parallel G$_2$-structure and admitting a transitive reductive group G of automorphisms. In particular, we show that the center of G is…

We classify finitely generated, residually finite automorphism-induced HNN-extensions in terms of the residual separability of a single associated subgroup. This classification provides a method to construct automorphism-induced…

Let X be a finite Abelian group, xi_i, i=1,2,...,n,n>1, be independent random variables with values in X and distributions mu_i. Let alpha_{ij},i,j=1,2,...,n, be automorphisms of X. We prove that the independence of n linear forms…

In the present paper, we show that many combinatorial and topological objects, such as maps, hypermaps, three-dimensional pavings, constellations and branched coverings of the two--sphere admit any given finite automorphism group. This…

Let $(X,\mu)$ be a standard probability space. An automorphism $T$ of $(X,\mu)$ has the weak Pinsker property if for every $\varepsilon > 0$ it has a splitting into a direct product of a Bernoulli shift and an automorphism of entropy less…

A group G acts infinitely transitively on a set Y if for every positive integer m, its action is m-transitive on Y. Given a real affine algebraic variety Y of dimension greater than or equal to two, we show that, under a mild restriction,…

Any finite state automaton gives rise to a Boolean one-dimensional TQFT with defects and inner endpoints of cobordisms. This paper extends the correspondence to Boolean TQFTs where defects accumulate toward inner endpoints, relating such…

Let $S_2^*(q)$ be the set of primitive Hecke eigenforms of weight 2 and prime level $q$. For $p$ prime and $t\in \mathbb{R}$, we prove asymptotic formulas for the sums $$ \mathcal {A}(p^j,q,t)=\sum_{f\in S_2^*(q)}…
