Let $\phi$ be an automorphism of a free group $F_n$ of rank $n$, and let $M_{\phi}=F_n \rtimes_{\phi} \mathbb{Z}$ be the corresponding mapping torus of $\phi$. We study the group $Out(M_{\phi})$ under certain technical conditions on $\phi$.…

If F is a finitely generated free group and \phi is an automorphism of F then the mapping torus of \phi admits a quadratic isoperimetric inequality. This is the third and final paper in a series proving this theorem. The first two were…

If F is a finitely generated free group and \phi is an automorphism of F then F \rtimes_\phi Z satisfties a quadratic isoperimetric inequality.

The mapping torus of an endomorphism \Phi of a group G is the HNN-extension G*_G with bonding maps the identity and \Phi. We show that a mapping torus of an injective free group endomorphism has the property that its finitely generated…

If $F$ is a finitely generated free group and $\phi$ is a positive automorphism of $F$ then $F\rtimes_\phi Z$ satisfies a quadratic isoperimetric inequality.

Let $F$ be a finite-rank free group and let $\Phi\in\mathrm{Out}(F)$ have polynomial growth. Let $G=F\rtimes_\Phi\mathbb{Z}$. We give sufficient conditions on $\Phi$ that ensure $G$ acts freely on a CAT(0) cube complex. For $d=1$, the class…

The mapping torus induced by an automorphism $\phi$ of the free abelian group $\mathbb{Z}^n$ is a semi-direct product $G=\mathbb{Z}^n\rtimes_\phi \mathbb{Z}$. We show that whether the rank of $G$ is equal to $n+1$ is decidable. As a…

Let $G$ be the mapping torus of a polynomially growing automorphism of a finitely generated free group. We determine which epimorphisms from $G$ to $\mathbb{Z}$ have finitely generated kernel, and we compute the rank of the kernel. We thus…

We prove that if $G_\phi=\langle F, t| t x t^{-1} =\phi(x), x\in F\rangle$ is the mapping torus group of an injective endomorphism $\phi: F\to F$ of a free group $F$ (of possibly infinite rank), then every two-generator subgroup $H$ of…

For an amalgam of two free groups and a particular kind of automorphism, we show that the Dehn function of the corresponding mapping torus is quadratic.

We prove that any isometry of the graph of cyclic splittings of a finitely generated free group $F_N$ of rank $N\ge 3$ is induced by an outer automorphism of $F_N$. The same statement also applies to the graphs of maximally-cyclic…

We study finite subgroups of outer automorphisms of free products. We give upper bounds for the orders of these finite subgroups as well as bounds for the orders of individual torsion outer automorphisms under some (necessary) conditions…

We prove that every simplicial automorphism of the free splitting graph of a free group of at least rank 3 is induced by an outer automorphism of the free group.

We present an algorithm which, given any finite presentation of a group as input, will terminate with answer yes if and only if the group is large. We use this to prove that a mapping torus of a finitely generated free group automorphism is…

The algebraic mapping torus $M_{\Phi}$ of a group $G$ with an automorphism $\Phi$ is the HNN-extension of $G$ in which conjugation by the stable letter performs $\Phi$. We classify the Dehn functions of $M_{\Phi}$ in terms of $\Phi$ for a…

The fundamental group of $M = \sharp_n (S^2\times S^1)$ is $F_n$, the free group with $n$ generators. There is a 1-1 correspondence between the equivalence classes of $\mathbb{Z}$-- splittings of $F_n$ and homotopy classes of embedded…

Let $G = H_1 * ... * H_k * F_r$ be a torsion-free group and $\phi$ an automorphism of $G$ that preserves this free factor system. We show that when $\phi$ is fully irreducible and atoroidal relative to this free factor system, the mapping…

By using a notion of a geometric Dehn twist in $\sharp_k(S^2 \times S^1)$, we prove that when projections of two $\mathbb{Z}$-splittings to the free factor complex are far enough from each other in the free factor complex, Dehn twist…

In this paper we find all symplectic groups and their maximal tori in which normalizer of a torus is split over the torus.

This is the last of a three part work about relative free splitting complexes $\mathcal{FS}(\Gamma,\mathscr{A})$ and their actions by relative outer automorphism groups $\text{Out}(\Gamma;\mathscr{A})$. We obtain quantitative relations…
