Let $G_{g,b}$ be the set of all uni/trivalent graphs representing the combinatorial structures of pant decompositions of the oriented surface of genus $g$ with $b$ boundary components. We describe the set $A_{g,b}$ of all automorphisms of…

We study automorphism groups and birational automorphism groups of compact complex surfaces. We show that the automorphism group of such surface $X$ is always Jordan, and the birational automorphism group is Jordan unless $X$ is birational…

The fine curve graph of a surface is the graph whose vertices are simple closed essential curves in the surface and whose edges connect disjoint curves. In this paper, we prove that the automorphism group of the fine curve graph of a…

We investigate the separability of several well known classes of subgroups of the mapping class group of a surface.

We show that the holomorph of a cyclic group of order $n$ is isomorphic to its own automophism group when $n$ is twice of a power of an odd prime.

It is known that the automorphism group of any projective K3 surface is finitely generated [24]. In this paper, we consider a certain kind of K3 surfaces with Picard number 3 whose automorphism groups are isomorphic to congruence subgroups…

The fine 1-curve graph of a surface is a graph whose vertices are simple closed curves on the surface and whose edges connect vertices that intersect in at most one point. We show that the automorphism group of the fine 1-curve graph is…

A normal subgroup of the (extended) mapping class group of a surface is said to be geometric if its automorphism group is the mapping class group. We prove that in the case of the Cantor tree surface, every normal subgroup is geometric. We…

We find the automorphism group of the moduli space of parabolic bundles on a smooth curve (with fixed determinant and system of weights). This group is generated by: automorphisms of the marked curve, tensoring with a line bundle, taking…

We study the action of the mapping class group on the real homology of finite covers of a topological surface. We use the homological representation of the mapping class to construct a faithful infinite-dimensional representation of the…

We prove that each injective simplicial map from the arc complex of a compact, connected, nonorientable surface with nonempty boundary to itself is induced by a homeomorphism of the surface. We also prove that the automorphism group of the…

In this paper we determine automorphism groups of cyclic algebraic curves defined over finite fields of any characteristic.

It is known that the small eigenvalues of the Laplacian of a Riemann surface close to the boundary of the modular space can be well approximated by the eigenvalues of the discrete Laplacian on a certain graph coming from the pair of pants…

The structure of the automorphism group of the sandwich semigroup IS_n is described in terms of standard group constructions.

Every indefinite binary form occurs as the Picard lattice of some K3-surface. The group of its isometries, or automorphs, coincides with the automorphism group of the K3-surface, but only up to finite groups. The classical theory of…

In this paper, we study a flag complex which is naturally associated to the Thurston theory of surface diffeomorphisms for compact connected orientable surfaces with boundary. The various pieces of the Thurston decomposition of a surface…

We classify the automorphism groups of del Pezzo surfaces of degrees one and two over an algebraically closed field of characteristic two. This finishes the classification of automorphism groups of del Pezzo surfaces in all characteristics.

We show that the natural map from the mapping class groups of surfaces to the automorphism groups of free groups, induces an infinite loop map on the classifying spaces of the stable groups after plus construction. The proof uses…

We classify del Pezzo surfaces with Du Val singularities that have infinite automorphism groups, and describe the connected components of their automorphisms groups.

We study the automorphism group of graphons (graph limits). We prove that after an appropriate "standardization" of the graphon, the automorphism group is compact. Furthermore, we characterize the orbits of the automorphism group on…
