We study finite orbits for non-elementary groups of automorphisms of compact projective surfaces. In particular we prove that if the surface and the group are defined over a number field k and the group contains parabolic elements, then the…
A general overview of the phenomenon of automatic continuity of homomorphisms between Polish groups is given. In particular, we study variants and improvements of the closed graph theorem, applying these to the problem of continuity of…
The automorphisms of free groups with boundaries form a family of groups A_{n,k} closely related to mapping class groups, with the standard automorphisms of free groups as A_{n,0} and (essentially) the symmetric automorphisms of free groups…
We find polynomial-time solutions to the word problem for free-by-cyclic groups, the word problem for automorphism groups of free groups, and the membership problem for the handlebody subgroup of the mapping class group. All of these…
We study equalizers and fixed points of monomorphisms of free groups at infinity. We show that the action of the equalizer of two monomorphisms on the regular points of the equalizer at infinity has finitely many orbits, showing that the…
In this paper we first survey some basic results in the cohomology of finite groups, and then discuss recent work on constructing free actions of finite groups on products of spheres.
We discuss some of the issues that arise in attempts to classify automorphisms of compact abelian groups from a dynamical point of view. In the particular case of automorphisms of one-dimensional solenoids, a complete description is given…
We prove the -- to the best knowledge of the authors -- first result on the fine asymptotic behavior of the regular part of the free boundary of the obstacle problem close to singularities. The result is motivated by our recent partial…
We show that the orthogonal speed of semigroups of holomorphic self-maps of the unit disc is asymptotically monotone in most cases. Such a theorem allows to generalize previous results of D. Betsakos and D. Betsakos, M. D. Contreras and S.…
We describe the outer automorphism group of a one-ended fundamental group of a graph of groups, when edge groups are cyclic, and vertex groups are torsion-free with cyclic centralizers. We show that in this case the outer automorphism group…
We investigate the combinatorial and geometric properties of automorphism groups of universal right-angled Coxeter groups, which are the automorphism groups of free products of copies of Z_2. It is currently an open question as to whether…
The paper is devoted to the study of free objects in the variety of Steiner loops and of the combinatorial structures behind them, focusing on their automorphism groups. We prove that all automorphisms are tame and the automorphism group is…
Free spectrahedra are natural objects in the theories of operator systems and spaces and completely positive maps. They also appear in various engineering applications. In this paper, free spectrahedra satisfying a Reinhardt symmetry…
The paper concerns the automorphism groups of Cayley graphs over cyclic groups which have a rational spectrum (rational circulant graphs for short). With the aid of the techniques of Schur rings it is shown that the problem is equivalent to…
Study of the dynamics of automorphisms of a group is usually focused on their growth and/or finite orbits, including fixed points. In this paper, we introduce properties of a different kind; using somewhat informal language, we call them…
We describe the groups of inner and outer automorphisms of the free metabelian nilpotent Lie algebra of finite rank over a field of characteristic 0. To obtain this result we first describe the groups of inner and continuous outer…
The concept of Automorphic Lie Algebras arises in the context of reduction groups introduced in the early 1980s in the field of integrable systems. Automorphic Lie Algebras are obtained by imposing a discrete group symmetry on a current…
Abstract polytopes are combinatorial structures with distinctive geometric, algebraic, or topological characteristics, that generalize (the face lattice of) traditional polyhedra, polytopes or tessellations. Most research has focused on…
In this paper, we consider the probability that a randomly chosen automorphism of a finite group fixes a randomly chosen element of a subgroup of that group. We obtain several new results as well as generalizations and improvements of some…
Every word in a free group $F$ induces a probability measure on every finite group in a natural manner. It is an open problem whether two words that induce the same measure on every finite group, necessarily belong to the same orbit of…
