Let $G=\ast_{i=1}^{n}G_{i}$ and let $\phi$ be a symmetric endomorphism of $G$. If $\phi$ is a monomorphism or if $G$ is a finitely generated residually finite group, then the fixed subgroup $Fix(\phi)=\{g\in G:\phi(g)=g\}$ of $\phi$ has…

Motivated by a classic theorem of Birman and Series about the set of complete simple geodesics on a hyperbolic surface, we study the Hausdorff dimension of the set of endpoints in $\partial F_r$ of some abstract algebraic laminations…

To every dynamical system $(X,\varphi)$ over a totally disconnected compact space, we associate a left-orderable group $T(\varphi)$. It is defined as a group of homeomorphisms of the suspension of $(X,\varphi)$ which preserve every orbit of…

We find the symmetry generators for the Friedman equations emanating from a perfect fluid source, in the presence of a cosmological constant term. The relevant dynamics is seen to be governed by two coupled, first order ordinary…

We study the automorphism groups attached to a free algebra with multiple, possibly infinitely many, composition laws. As an application, we prove that the automorphism group of finitely generated vertex algebras over noetherian rings are…

The automorphism group of a finitely generated free group is the normal closure of a single element of order 2. If $m$ is less than $n$ then a homomorphism $Aut(F_n)\to Aut(F_m)$ can have cardinality at most 2. More generally, this is true…

It is known that a finite group with an automorphism $\varphi$ of coprime order has a soluble radical of $(|\varphi|,|C_G(\varphi)|)$-bounded Fitting height and index. We extend this classic result as follows. Let $f(x) = a_0 + a_1 \cdot x…

Let F_n be the free group of rank n, with generating set S=\{x_1,...,x_n\}. An automorphism \phi of F_n is called symmetric if for each 1\leq i\leq n, \phi(x_i) is conjugate to x_j or x_j^{-1} for some 1\leq j\leq n. Let \Sigma Aut(F_n) be…

Suppose that a Lie algebra $L$ admits a finite Frobenius group of automorphisms $FH$ with cyclic kernel $F$ and complement $H$ of order 2, such that the fixed-point subalgebra of $F$ is trivial and the fixed-point subalgebra of $H$ is…

The paper is devoted to the study of free objects in the variety of Steiner loops and of the combinatorial structures behind them, focusing on their automorphism groups. We prove that all automorphisms are tame and the automorphism group is…

Several different areas of group theory, topology and geometry have led to the study of the action of Aut(Fn) | the automorphism group of the free group on n generators | on Hom(Fn;G) when G is either finite,compact or simple Lie group. In…

Let $G$ be a finite group of odd order admitting an involutory automorphism $\phi$. We obtain two results bounding the exponent of $[G,\phi]$. Denote by $G_{-\phi}$ the set $\{[g,\phi]\,\vert\, g\in G\}$ and by $G_{\phi}$ the centralizer of…

We show that every virtually torsion-free subgroup of the outer automorphism group of a conjugacy separable hyperbolic group is residually finite. As a result, we are able to prove that the group of outer automorphisms of every finitely…

Let $Ab_0$ be the class of finite abelian groups and consider the function $f:Ab_0\longrightarrow(0,\infty)$ given by $f(G)=\frac{|{\rm Aut}(G)|}{|G|}$\,, where ${\rm Aut}(G)$ is the automorphism group of a finite abelian group $G$. In this…

Given a finite abelian group $G$ and elements $x, y \in G$, we prove that there exists $\phi \in \text{Aut}(G)$ such that $\phi(x) = y$ if and only if $G/\langle x \rangle \cong G/\langle y \rangle$. This result leads to our development of…

Given a countable group $G$ and two subshifts $X$ and $Y$ over $G$, a continuous, shift-commuting map $\phi : X \to Y$ is called a homomorphism. Our main result states that if every finitely generated subgroup of $G$ has polynomial growth,…

We prove that the isomorphism problem for finitely generated fully residually free groups is decidable. We also show that each finitely generated fully residually free group G has a decomposition that is invariant under automorphisms of G,…

We prove that for a free product $G$ with free factor system $\mathcal{G}$, any automorphism $\phi$ preserving $\mathcal{G}$, atoroidal (in a sense relative to $\mathcal{G}$) and none of whose power send two different conjugates of…

In a paper from 2011, Jiang, Wang and Zhang studied the fixed points and fixed subgroups of selfmaps on a connected finite graph or a connected compact hyperbolic surface $X$. In particular, for any selfmap $f: X\to X$, they proved that a…

We show that every finite group occurs as the automorphism group of infinitely many finite (field) extensions of any given Hilbertian field. This extends and unifies previous results of M. Fried and Takahashi on the global field case.
