The paper concerns the automorphism groups of Cayley graphs over cyclic groups which have a rational spectrum (rational circulant graphs for short). With the aid of the techniques of Schur rings it is shown that the problem is equivalent to…

We consider a family of 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras associated to uniform complete graphs on odd number of vertices. We prove that the symmetry group of such a graph is the holomorph of the additive cyclic group $\Z_n$. Moreover, we prove…

A partial automorphism of a finite graph is an isomorphism between its vertex induced subgraphs. The set of all partial automorphisms of a given finite graph forms an inverse monoid under composition (of partial maps). We describe the…

The second part of the paper is devoted to enumeration of $r$-regular toroidal maps up to all homeomorphisms of the torus (unsensed maps). We describe in detail the periodic orientation reversing homeomorphisms of the torus which turn out…

It is shown how to model any automorphism of a totally disconnected, locally compact group by a symbolic dynamical system. The model is an inverse limit of a product of a full-shift, on a finite number of symbols, with one of two types of…

We look at the automorphisms of Thompson type groups of piecewise linear homeomorphisms of the real line or circle that use slopes that are integral powers of a fixed integer n with n>2. We show that large numbers of "exotic" automorphisms…

Let $\mathcal{L}$ be a finite-dimensional semisimple Lie algebra of rank $N$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. Associated to $\mathcal{L}$ is a family of polynomial folding maps…

Any representation of data involves arbitrary investigator choices. Because those choices are external to the data-generating process, each choice leads to an exact symmetry, corresponding to the group of transformations that takes one…

After investigating by examples the unusual and striking elementary properties of the Penrose tilings and the Arnold cat map, we associate a finite symbolic dynamics with finite grammar rules to each of them. Instead of studying these…

Explicit generators are found for the group of automorphisms of the algebra of one-sided inverses of a polynomial algebra in $n$ variables. An analogue of the polynomial Jacobian homomorphism is found.

We study automorphic Lie algebras and their applications to integrable systems. Automorphic Lie algebras are a natural generalisation of celebrated Kac-Moody algebras to the case when the group of automorphisms is not cyclic. They are…

A countable graph is ultrahomogeneous if every isomorphism between finite induced subgraphs can be extended to an automorphism. Woodrow and Lachlan showed that there are essentially four types of such countably infinite graphs: the random…

Automorphism groups are intrincate conjugacy invariants for subshifts, which can reveal important features of the dynamical structure of a shift action. One important case is the study of automorphism groups when the underlying subshift has…

Let $K$ be an {\em arbitrary} field of characteristic $p>0$, let $A$ be one of the following algebras: $P_n:= K[x_1, ..., x_n]$ is a polynomial algebra, $\CD (P_n)$ is the ring of differential operators on $P_n$, $\CD (P_n)\t P_m$, the…

We call a closed, connected, orientable manifold in one of the categories TOP, PL or DIFF chiral if it does not admit an orientation-reversing automorphism and amphicheiral otherwise. Moreover, we call a manifold strongly chiral if it does…

Algorithmic methods for the explicit inversion of the indefinite double covering maps are proposed. These are based on either the Givens decomposition or the polar decomposition of the given matrix in the proper, indefinite orthogonal group…

Let $\Gamma$ be a simple undirected graph on a finite vertex set and let $A$ be its adjacency matrix. Then $\Gamma$ is {\it singular} if $A$ is singular. The problem of characterising singular graphs is easy to state but very difficult to…

We compute the intersections between the automorphism strata and the pullback by the Torelli map of the Ekedahl-Oort strata inside the moduli space of genus two curves. We first describe explicitly which possible automorphism groups a genus…

We study the ergodic properties for a class of quantized toral automorphisms, namely the cat and Kronecker maps. The present work uses and extends the results of [KL]. We show that quantized cat maps are strongly mixing, while Kronecker…

Let $(G,w)$ be an undirected weighted graph. The group inverse of $(G,w)$ is the weighted graph with the adjacency matrix $A^{\#}$, where $A$ is the adjacency matrix of $(G,w)$. We study the group inverse of singular weighted trees. It is…
