We prove that every automorphism of an infinite-dimensional vector space over a field is the product of four involutions, a result that is optimal in the general case. We also characterize the automorphisms that are the product of three…
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…
We give elementary proofs of the following two theorems on automorphisms of a finite group G: (1) An automorphism of G is inner if and only if it extends to an automorphism of every finite group containing G. (2) There exists a finite…
The Bogomolov Conjecture is a finiteness statement about algebraic points of small height on a smooth complete curve defined over a global field. We verify an effective form of the Bogomolov Conjecture for all curves of genus at most 4…
We show that the algebraic automorphism group of the SL(2,C) character variety of a closed orientable surface with negative Euler characteristic is a finite extension of its mapping class group. Along the way, we provide a simple…
Bergman has given the following abstract characterisation of the inner automorphisms of a group $G$: they are exactly those automorphisms of $G$ which can be extended functorially along any homomorphism $G \rightarrow H$ to an automorphism…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a family of inner products in a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{K}$ to have an orthogonal basis relative to all the inner products. Some applications to…
The inversion formula is given for automorphisms of the Weyl algebras with polynomial coefficients over a field of characteristic zero. The theorem of Gabber on the degree of polynomial automorphism is extended. It is proved that any…
An algebraic extension K of the rationals has the Bogomolov property if the absolute logarithmic height of non-torsion points of K* is bounded away from 0. We define a relative extension L/K to be Bogomolov if this holds for points of L\K.…
The present paper is devoted to provide conditions for the Levi--Malcev theorem to hold or not to hold (i.e. for two Levi subalgebras to be or not conjugate by an inner automorphism) in the context of finite-dimensional Leibniz algebras…
It is well known that a purely inseparable field extension $L/F$ with some extra property and degree $[L:F]=4$ determines a Clifford parallelism on the set of lines of the three-dimensional projective space over $F$. By extending the ground…
In [2], an exhaustive construction is achieved for the class of all 4-dimensional unital division algebras over finite fields of odd order, whose left nucleus is not minimal and whose automorphism group contains Klein's four-group. We…
We prove a Lipschitz-Volume rigidity theorem in Alexandrov geometry, that is, if a 1-Lipschitz map $f\colon X=\amalg X_\ell\to Y$ between Alexandrov spaces preserves volume, then it is a path isometry and an isometry when restricted to the…
Let $K[x,y]$ be the polynomial algebra in two variables over an algebraically closed field $K$. We generalize to the case of any characteristic the result of Furter that over a field of characteristic zero the set of automorphisms $(f,g)$…
We consider the problem of classifying Kolmogorov automorphisms (or $K$-automorphisms for brevity) up to isomorphism. Within the collection of measure-preserving transformations, Bernoulli shifts have the ultimate mixing property, and…
The Lie algebra version of the Krull-Schmidt Theorem is formulated and proved. This leads to a method for constructing the automorphisms of a direct sum of Lie algebras from the automorphisms of its indecomposable components. For…
In the work of Rostami et al., the Bogomolov multiplier of a Lie algebra $L$ over a field $\Omega$ is defined as a particular factor of a subalgebra of the exterior product $L \wedge L$. If $L$ is finite dimensional, we identify this object…
Let $G\subset\GL(\BC^r)$ be a finite complex reflection group. We show that when $G$ is irreducible, apart from the exception $G=\Sgot_6$, as well as for a large class of non-irreducible groups, any automorphism of $G$ is the product of a…
The role of automorphisms of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras in conformal field theory is examined. Two main types of applications are discussed; they are related to the enhancement and reduction of symmetry, respectively. The structures…
The bilinear Bogolyubov argument for $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ states that if we start with a dense set $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_p^n \times \mathbb{F}_p^n$ and carry out sufficiently many steps where we replace every row or every column of $A$ by the…
