We describe the group of $\mathbb Z$-linear automorphisms of the ring of integers of a number field $K$ that preserve the set $V_{K,k}$ of $k$th power-free integers: every such map is the composition of a field automorphism and the…

We prove the Freiheitssatz for right-symmetric algebras and the decidability of the word problem for right-symmetric algebras with a single defining relation. We also prove that two generated subalgebras of free right-symmetric algebras are…

We give a short and elementary proof of Jung's theorem, which states that for a field K of characteristic zero the automorphisms of K[x,y] are generated by elementary automorphisms and linear automorphisms.

It is known that automorphisms of finite-dimensional bound quiver algebras decompose into inner automorphisms and automorphisms which permute the vertices. In this paper, we show that for string algebras, automorphisms permuting vertices…

Let $K$ be a field and $f:\mathbb{P}^N \to \mathbb{P}^N$ a morphism. There is a natural conjugation action on the space of such morphisms by elements of the projective linear group $\text{PGL}_{N+1}$. The group of automorphisms, or…

The well-known Bachmuth-Mochizuki-Roman'kov Theorem \cite{BM,Romankov85} states that every automorphism of the free metabelian group of rank $\geq 4$ is tame. In 1992 Yu. Bahturin and S. Nabiyev \cite{BN} claimed that every nontrivial inner…

We establish a correspondence between automorphisms and derivations on certain algebras of generalised power series. In particular, we describe a Lie algebra of derivations on a field $k(\!(G)\!)$ of generalised power series, exploiting our…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and let $f: k[x,y] \to k[x,y]$, $f: (x,y) \mapsto (p,q)$, be a $k$-algebra endomorphism having an invertible Jacobian. Write $p=a_ny^n+\cdots+a_1y+a_0$, where $n=deg_y(p) \in \mathbb{N}$, $a_i \in…

Automorphisms of finite order and real forms of "smooth" affine Kac-Moody algebras are studied, i.e. of 2-dimensional extensions of the algebra of smooth loops in a simple Lie algebra. It is shown that they can be parametrized by certain…

Let $ K[x, y]$ be the polynomial algebra in two variables over a field $K$ of characteristic $0$. A subalgebra $R$ of $K[x, y]$ is called a retract if there is an idempotent homomorphism (a {\it retraction}, or {\it projection}) $\varphi:…

Recently, Edo-Poloni constructed a family of tame automorphisms of a polynomial ring in three variables which degenerates to a wild automorphism. In this note, we generalize the example by a different method.

We prove that the fixed ring of the $q$-division ring $k_q(x,y)$ under any finite group of monomial automorphisms is isomorphic to $k_q(x,y)$ for the same $q$. In a similar manner, we also show that this phenomenon extends to an…

We show that K_{2i}(Z[x,y]/(xy),(x,y)) is free abelian of rank 1 and that K_{2i+1}(Z[x,y]/(xy),(x,y)) is finite of order (i!)^2. We also compute K_{2i+1}(Z[x,y]/(xy),(x,y)) in low degrees.

Let F_n = <x_1,...,x_n> denote the free group with generators {x_1,...,x_n}. Nielsen and Magnus described generators for the kernel of the canonical epimorphism from the automorphism group of F_n to the general linear group over the…

The polynomial automorphisms of the affine plane over a field K form a group which has the structure of an amalgamated free product. This well-known algebraic structure can be used to determine some key results about the symmetry and…

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 investigate the existence of fixed-point-free automorphisms for finite-dimensional Lie algebras. By a result of Jacobson, a Lie algebra admitting a fixed-point-free automorphism is solvable. We prove that such a Lie…

We prove that a linear mapping on the algebra \(\mathfrak{sl}_n\) of all trace zero complex matrices is a local automorphism if and only if it is an automorphism or an anti-automorphism. We also show that a linear mapping on a simple…

In this paper we prove that any local automorphism on the solvable Leibniz algebras with null-filiform and naturally graded non-Lie filiform nilradicals, whose dimension of complementary space is maximal is an automorphism. Furthermore, the…

Consider a smooth connected algebraic group $G$ acting on a normal projective variety $X$ with an open dense orbit. We show that Aut($X$) is a linear algebraic group if so is $G$; for an arbitrary $G$, the group of components of Aut($X$) is…
