The configuration space $\mathcal{C}^n(X)$ of an algebraic curve $X$ is the algebraic variety consisting of all $n$-point subsets $Q\subset X$. We describe the automorphisms of $\mathcal{C}^n(\mathbb{C})$, deduce that the (infinite…
We generalize the positive solution of the Frobenius conjecture and refinements thereof by studying the structure of groups that admit a fix-point-free automorphism satisfying an identity. We show, in particular, that for every polynomial…
A question of interest both in Hopf-Galois theory and in the theory of skew braces is whether the holomorph $\mathrm{Hol(N)}$ of a finite soluble group $N$ can contain an insoluble regular subgroup. We investigate the more general problem…
We prove that the isomorphism problem is decidable for generalized Baumslag-Solitar (GBS) groups with one quasi-conjugacy class and full support gaps. In order to do so we introduce a family of invariants that fully characterize the…
Given a number field $k$, and a quadratic rational function $f(x) \in k(x)$, the associated arboreal representation of the absolute Galois group of $k$ is a subgroup of the automorphism group of a regular rooted binary tree. Boston and…
In this article, we study the space of subgroups of generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups (GBS groups), that is, groups acting cocompactly on an oriented tree without inversion and with infinite cyclic vertex and edge stabilizers. Our results…
Let G be a finitely generated relatively hyperbolic group. We show that if no peripheral subgroup of G is hyperbolic relative to a collection of proper subgroups, then the fixed subgroup of every automorphism of G is relatively quasiconvex.…
Let $G=\mathbf{Z}_{p} \oplus \mathbf{Z}_{p^2}$, where $p$ is a prime number. Suppose that $d$ is a divisor of the order of $G$. In this paper we find the number of automorphisms of $G$ fixing $d$ elements of $G$, and denote it by…
For a wide class of groups including polycyclic and finitely generated polynomial growth groups it is proved that the Reidemeister number of an automorphism f is equal to the number of finite-dimensional fixed points of the induced map f^…
For an ascending HNN-extension $G*_{\psi}$ of a finitely generated abelian group $G$, we study how a synchronization between the geometry of the group and weak periodicity of a configuration in $\mathcal{A}^{G*_{\psi}}$ forces global…
We characterize the stabilized automorphism group for odometers and Toeplitz subshifts and then prove an invariance property of the stabilized automorphism group of these dynamical systems. A particular case of interest is that for torsion…
For the action of a group $G$ by homeomorphisms on a space $X$, the automorphism group $\mathrm{Aut}(X,G)$ consists of all self-homeomorphisms of $X$ which commute with $x \mapsto g \cdot x$ for every $g \in G$. A theorem of Ryan shows that…
We study locally closed transformation monoids which contain the automorphism group of the random graph. We show that such a transformation monoid is locally generated by the permutations in the monoid, or contains a constant operation, or…
Let $G$ be a permutation group on the finite set $\Omega$. We prove various results about partitions of $\Omega$ whose stabilizers have good properties. In particular, in every solvable permutation group there is a set-stabilizer whose…
Generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups are defined as fundamental groups of graphs of groups with infinite cyclic vertex and edge groups. Forester proved (in "On uniqueness of JSJ decompositions of finitely generated groups", Comment. Math.…
In this paper we study fixed point properties for semitopological semigroup of nonexpansive mappings on a bounded closed convex subset of a Banach space. We also study a Schauder fixed point property for a semitopological semigroup of…
We consider an oriented version of the stable symplectic category defined in \cite{N}. We show that the group of monoidal automorphisms of this category, that fix each object, contains a natural subgroup isomorphic to the solvable quotient…
For a finite abelian group $A$, the Reidemeister number of an endomorphism $\varphi$ equals the size of $\mathrm{Fix}(\varphi)$, the set of fixed points of $\varphi$. Consequently, the Reidemeister spectrum of $A$ is a subset of the set of…
We study algebraicity and smoothness of fixed point stacks for flat group schemes which have a finite composition series whose factors are either reductive or proper, flat, finitely presented, acting on algebraic stacks with affine,…
We show the simplicity of the automorphism groups of the generic $n$-hypertournament and the semigeneric tournament, and determine the normal subgroups of the automorphism groups of several other ultrahomogeneous oriented graphs. We also…
