Let $F$ be a perfect field and $M^*(F)$ the nonassociative simple Moufang loop consisting of the units in the (unique) split octonion algebra $O(F)$ modulo the center. Then $Aut(M^*(F))$ is equal to $G_2(F) \rtimes Aut(F)$. In particular,…

We apply results proved in [Li19] to the linear order expansions of non-trivial free homogeneous structures and the universal n-linear order for $n\geq 2$, and prove the simplicity of their automorphism groups.

We clarify the structure of subgroups generated by conjugate graph automorphisms of order $3$ of $O_8^+(2)$ and $O_8^+(3)$. As a result, we obtain a correction to a paper by S. Guest which, in turn, plays an important role in proving the…

We show that for any $n$-ary group $(G,f)$, the group $Aut(G,f)$ can be embedded in $Aut(\mathbb{Z}_{n-1}\ltimes G)$ and so we can obtain a class of interesting automorphisms of cyclic extensions.

We give an accessible and modern description of the automorphisms of a finite abelian group $G$. Included is an explicit formula for the cardinality of $Aut(G)$.

We prove an analogue of the Centralizer Theorem in the context of Artin-Tits groups.

It is a well-known fact that every group $G$ has a presentation of the form $G = F/R$, where $F$ is a free group and $R$ the kernel of the natural epimorphism from $F$ onto $G$. Driven by the desire to obtain a similar presentation of the…

In this paper, we investigate the structure of the automorphism groups of pure braid groups. We prove that, for $n>3$, $\Aut(P_n)$ is generated by the subgroup $\Aut_c(P_n)$ of central automorphisms of $P_n$, the subgroup $\Aut(B_n)$ of…

Let $k \geq 1$ be an integer and $n=3k-1$. Let $\mathbb{Z}_n$ denote the additive group of integers modulo $n$ and let $C$ be the subset of $\mathbb{Z}_n$ consisting of the elements congruent to 1 modulo 3. The Cayley graph…

We consider formal maps in any finite dimension $d$ with coefficients in an integral domain $K$ with identity. Those invertible under formal composition form a group $\mathcal{G}$. We consider the centraliser $C_g$ of an element…

It is proved that the generalized cluster complex defined by Fomin and Reading has a dihedral symmetry. Together with diagram symmetries, they generate its automorphism group. A consequence is a simple explicit formula for the order of this…

We study the automorphism group of Hall's universal locally finite group $H$. We show that in $Aut(H)$ every subgroup of index $< 2^\omega$ lies between the pointwise and the setwise stabilizer of a unique finite subgroup $A$ of $H$, and…

For any choice of a basis $\cal A$ the free group $F_N$ of finite rank $N \geq 2$ can be canonically identified with the set $F(\cal A)$ of reduced words in $\cal A\cup \cal A^{-1}$. However, such a word $w \in F(\cal A)$ admits a second…

This paper is a continuation of [GLT], which develops a level theory and establishes strong character bounds for finite simple groups of linear and unitary type in the case that the centralizer of the element has small order compared to…

In this note we investigate the centraliser of a linearly growing element of $\mathrm{Out}(F_n)$ (that is, a root of a Dehn twist automorphism), and show that it has a finite index subgroup mapping onto a direct product of certain…

We observe that, for each positive integer n > 2, each of the Artin groups of finite type A_n, B_n=C_n, and affine type \tilde A_{n-1} and \tilde C_{n-1} is a central extension of a finite index subgroup of the mapping class group of the…

We consider an action of the automorphism group $\mathrm{Aut}(F_n)$ of the free group $F_n$ of rank $n$ on the filtered vector space $A_d(n)$ of Jacobi diagrams of degree $d$ on $n$ oriented arcs. This action induces on the associated…

In this paper, for a Lie 2-algebra $\g$, we construct the automorphism 2-group $\Aut(\g)$, which turns out to be an integration of the derivation Lie 2-algebra $\Der(\g)$.

We classify all group topologies coarser than the topology of stabilizers of finite sets in the case of automorphism groups of countable free-homogeneous structures, Urysohn space and Urysohn sphere, among other related results.

Conway's second largest simple group, $\Co_2$, is characterized by the centralizer of an element of order 3 and certain fusion data.
