We study adequate subgroups of $GL_n$ over a finite field. This notion is useful in the study of automorphy lifting theorems. In particular, we give a sufficient condition for a subgroup to be adequate.
The so-called Tits class, associated to an adjoint absolutely almost simple algebraic group, provides a cohomological obstruction for this group to admit an outer automorphism. If the group has inner type, this obstruction is the only one.…
A group $G$ is integrable if it is isomorphic to the derived subgroup of a group $H$; that is, if $H'\simeq G$, and in this case $H$ is an integral of $G$. If $G$ is a subgroup of $U$, we say that $G$ is integrable within $U$ if $G=H'$ for…
We prove that the outer automorphism group $\mathrm{Out}(N)$ of an infinitely generated free nilpotent group $N$ of class two is complete.
We define and study the class of inner ultrahomogeneous groups, which includes Hall's universal group and the universal locally recursively presentable group. We provide simple criteria for ample generic automorphisms, straight maximality,…
We show that the group of bounded automatic automorphisms of a rooted tree is amenable, which implies amenability of numerous classes of groups generated by finite automata. The proof is based on reducing the problem to showing amenability…
In the paper we obtain the existence criterion of a Carter subgroup in a finite group in terms of its normal series. An example showing that the criterion cannot be reformulated in terms of composition factors is given.
Fix an equilateral triangle group $T_i=\langle a, b; a^i, b^i, (ab)^i\rangle$ with $i\geq6$ arbitrary. Our main result is: for every presentation $\mathcal{P}$ of every countable group $Q$ there exists an HNN-extension $T_{\mathcal{P}}$ of…
New criteria for which Cayley graphs of cyclic groups of any order can be completely determined--up to isomorphism--by the eigenvalues of their adjacency matrices is presented. Secondly, a new construction for pairs of nonisomorphic Cayley…
We prove that the quotient map from Aut(F_n) to Out(F_n) induces an isomorphism on homology in dimension i for n at least 2i+4. This corrects an earlier proof by the first author and significantly improves the stability range. In the course…
We construct the first known examples of infinite subgroups of the outer automorphism group of Out(A_Gamma), for certain right-angled Artin groups A_Gamma. This is achieved by introducing a new class of graphs, called focused graphs, whose…
A new approach is suggested to characterize algebraically automorphisms of the category of free algebras of a given variety. It gives in many cases an answer to the problem set by the first of authors, if automorphisms of such a category…
The group ring of the automorphism group of a p-group is studied using the automorphism groups of subgroups and quotient groups of P.
We give an elementary criterion on a group G for the map from Aut(G) to Out(G) to split virtually. This criterion applies to many residually finite CAT(0) groups and hyperbolic groups, and in particular to all finitely generated Coxeter…
Let $G$ be a finitely generated group with an automorphism $\varphi\in{\rm Aut}(G)$, or an outer automorphism $\phi\in{\rm Out}(G)$. Suppose that $G$ decomposes into simpler pieces on which the growth behaviour of $\varphi$ and $\phi$ is…
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…
We classify the automorphic representations (over number fields) and the irreducible admissible representations (over local fields) of unitary groups which are not quasi-split, under the assumption that the same is known for quasi-split…
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…
This article studies the complexity of the word problem in groups of automorphisms of subshifts. We show in particular that for any Turing degree, there exists a subshift whose automorphism group contains a subgroup whose word problem has…
We give a classification of iwip outer automorphisms of the free group, by discussing the properties of their attracting and repelling trees.
