Dynamics of free group automorphisms
We present a coarse convexity result for the dynamics of free group automorphisms: Given an automorphism φ of a finitely generated free group F , we show that for all x ∈ F and 0 ≤ i ≤ N , the length of φ(x) is bounded above by a constant multiple of the sum of the lengths of x and φ (x), with the constant depending only on φ.
متن کاملInvariant Sets and Measures of Nonexpansive Group Automorphisms
We prove that the restriction of a probability measure invariant under a nonhyperbolic, ergodic and totally irreducible automorphism of a compact connected abelian group to the leaves of the central foliation is severely restricted. We also prove a topological analogue of this result: the intersection of every proper closed invariant subset with each central leaf is compact.
متن کاملCounting Reducible Matrices, Polynomials, and Surface and Free Group Automorphisms
A. We give upper bounds on the numbers of various classes of polynomials reducible over Z and over Z/pZ, and on the number of matrices in SL(n),GL(n) and Sp(2n) with reducible characteristic polynomials, and on polynomials with non-generic Galois groups. We use our result to show that a random (in the appropriate sense) element of the mapping class group of a closed surface is pseudo-Ano...
متن کاملAutomorphisms and strongly invariant relations
We investigate characterizations of the Galois connection sInv–Aut between sets of finitary relations on a base set A and their automorphisms. In particular, for A = ω1, we construct a set R of relations that is closed under all invariant operations on relations and under arbitrary intersections, but is not closed under sInv Aut.
متن کاملFree-group Automorphisms, Train Tracks, and the Beaded Decomposition
We study the automorphisms φ of a finitely generated free group F . Building on the train-track technology of Bestvina, Feighn and Handel, we provide a topological representative f : G→ G of a power of φ that behaves very much like the realization on the rose of a positive automorphism. This resemblance is encapsulated in the Beaded Decomposition Theorem which describes the structure of paths i...
