The group of 2-by-2 matrices with integer entries and determinant $\pm > 1$ can be identified either with the group of outer automorphisms of a rank two free group or with the group of isotopy classes of homeomorphisms of a 2-dimensional…

We determine the structure of automorphism groups of finite graphs of bounded Hadwiger number. Our proof includes a structural analysis of finite edge-transitive graphs. In particular, we show that for connected, $K_{h+1}$-minor-free,…

In this article we give two explicit families of automorphisms of degree $\leq 3$ of the affine $3$-space $\mathbb{A}^3$ such that each automorphism of degree $\leq 3$ of $\mathbb{A}^3$ is a member of one of these families up to composition…

We prove that the unitriangular automorphism group of a free group of rank $n$ has a faithful representation by matrices over a field, or in other words, it is a linear group, if and only if $n \leq 3.$ Thus, we have completed a description…

We study birational automorphisms of algebraic varieties of bounded growth, i.e. such that the norms of the inverse images ${(f^n)}^* \colon \mathrm{NS}(X)\to \mathrm{NS}(X)$ of the powers of the automorphism $f\in\mathrm{Bir}(X)$ are…

We prove that the outer automorphism group of a free group of countably infinite rank is complete.

We will show that every element of a finitely generated abelian group is automorphically equivalent what we will define to be a {\em representative element} in a {\em repeat-free subgroup}, and for finite abelian groups we can count the…

We prove that topologically isomorphic linear cellular automaton shifts are algebraically isomorphic. Using this, we show that two distinct such shifts cannot be isomorphic. We conclude that the automorphism group of a linear cellular…

For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…

We study the automorphism groups of free-by-cyclic groups and show these are finitely generated in the following cases: (i) when defining automorphism has linear growth and (ii) when the rank of the underlying free group has rank at most 3.…

In this paper we define a way to get a bounded invertible automaton starting from a finite graph. It turns out that the corresponding automaton group is regular weakly branch over its commutator subgroup, contains a free semigroup on two…

Let G be a torsion--free abelian group of finite rank. The automorphism group Aut(G) acts on the set of maximal independent subsets of G. The orbits of this action are the isomorphism classes of indecomposable decompositions of G. G…

For every natural number $n$, we classify abelian groups generated by an $n$-state time-varying automaton over the binary alphabet, as well as by an $n$-state Mealy automaton over the binary alphabet.

It is examined finite state automorphisms of regular rooted trees constructed to represent groups $GL(n,\mathbb{Z})$. The number of states of automorphisms that correspond to elementary matrices is computed. Using the representation of…

We prove that non-abelian free groups of finite rank at least 3 or of countable rank are not $\forall$-homogeneous. We answer three open questions from Kharlampovich, Myasnikov, and Sklinos regarding whether free groups, finitely generated…

We consider $\omega^n$-automatic structures which are relational structures whose domain and relations are accepted by automata reading ordinal words of length $\omega^n$ for some integer $n\geq 1$. We show that all these structures are…

Since the end of the XIXth century, we know that each birational map of the complex projective plane is the product of a finite number of quadratic birational maps of the projective plane; this motivates our work which essentially deals…

We prove in this note that, for an alphabet with three letters, the set of first return to a given word in a set satisfying the tree condition is a basis of the free group.

It is proved that the group of birational automorphisms of a three-dimensional double quadric with a singular point arising from a double point on the branch divisor is a semidirect product of the free group generated by birational…

Let T be a d-regular tree (d > 2) and A=Aut(T), its automorphism group. Let G be a group generated by n independent Haar-random elements of A. We show that almost surely, every nontrivial element of G has finitely many fixed points on T.
