We prove that, although it is undecidable if a subgroup fixed by an automorphism intersects nontrivially an arbitrary subgroup of $F_n\times F_m$, there is an algorithm that, taking as input a monomorphism and an endomorphism of $F_n\times…
A structure is called homogeneous if every isomorphism between finitely induced substructures of the structure extends to an automorphism of the structure. Recently, P. J. Cameron and J. Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il introduced a relaxed version of…
A counterexample to the conjecture that the automorphisms of an arbitrary Arveson system act transitively on its normalized units.
We show that several classes of groups G of PL-homeomorphisms of the real line admit non-trivial homomorphisms from G to the additive group of reals that are fixed by every automorphism of G. The classes of groups enjoying the stated…
We show that Bogoljubov actions of $\mathbb{R}$ on the free group factor $L(\mathbb{F}_{\infty})$ associated to sums of infinite multiplicity trivial and certain mixing representations are cocycle conjugate if and only if the underlying…
We prove in most cases that a general smooth complete intersection in the projective space has no non-trivial automorphisms.
We show that, for a closed non-orientable surface $F$, an automorphism of $H_1(F,\Z)$ is induced by a homeomorphism of $F$ if and only if it preserves the (mod 2) intersection pairing. We shall also prove the corresponding result for…
Martin's Axiom does not imply that all automorphisms of P(N)/[N]^{<aleph_0} are somewhere trivial.
We conjecture that bounded generalised polynomial functions cannot be generated by finite automata, except for the trivial case when they are periodic away from a finite set. Using methods from ergodic theory, we are able to partially…
We prove the automorphism conjecture for ordered sets of width less than or equal to 11. The proof supports the meta conjecture that a large number of automorphisms is achievable only as some type of product of independent automorphisms on…
We consider simplicial complexes that are generated from the binomial random 3-uniform hypergraph by taking the downward-closure. We determine when this simplicial complex is homologically connected, meaning that its zero-th and first…
To any automorphism, $\alpha$, of a totally disconnected, locally compact group, $G$, there is associated a compact, $\alpha$-stable subgroup of $G$, here called the \emph{nub} of $\alpha$, on which the action of $\alpha$ is topologically…
We prove that the cup product of $\Delta$-decomposable quasimorphisms, Brooks quasimorphisms or Rolli quasimorphisms with any bounded cohomology class of arbitrary positive degree is trivial.
We consider linear iterated function systems (IFS) with a constant contraction ratio in the plane for which the "overlap set" $\Ok$ is finite, and which are "invertible" on the attractor $A$, the sense that there is a continuous surjection…
We prove that for any nondegenerate dendrite $D$ there exist topologically mixing maps $F : D \to D$ and $f : [0, 1] \to [0, 1]$, such that the natural extensions (aka shift homeomorphisms) $\sigma_F$ and $\sigma_f$ are conjugate, and…
Disjoint $n$-amalgamation is a condition on a complete first-order theory specifying that certain locally consistent families of types are also globally consistent. In this paper, we show that if a countably categorical theory $T$ admits an…
For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $N$ a normal subgroup of $G$. We determine the structure of $N$ when the graph $\Gamma_G(N)$, which is the graph associated to the conjugacy classes of $G$ contained in $N$, has no triangles and when the graph…
Let $\Sigma$ be a compact connected oriented 2-dimensional manifold with non-empty boundary. In our previous work, we have shown that the solution of generalized (higher genus) Kashiwara-Vergne equations for an automorphism $F \in {\rm…
In order to understand the structure of the "typical" element of an automorphism group, one has to study how large the conjugacy classes of the group are. For the case when typical is meant in the sense of Baire category, Truss proved that…
