Regular maps with nilpotent automorphism groups
According to a folklore result, every regular map on an orientable surface with abelian automorphism group belongs to one of three infinite families of maps with one or two vertices. Here we deal with regular maps whose automorphism group is nilpotent. We show that each such map decomposes into a direct product of two maps H×K, where Aut(H) is a 2-group and K is a map with a single vertex and a...
متن کاملRegular maps with almost Sylow-cyclic automorphism groups, and classification of regular maps with Euler characteristic −p2
A regular map M is a cellular decomposition of a surface such that its automorphism group Aut(M) acts transitively on the flags of M. It can be shown that if a Sylow subgroup P ≤ Aut(M) has order coprime to the Euler characteristic of the supporting surface, then P is cyclic or dihedral. This observation motivates the topic of the current paper, where we study regular maps whose automorphism gr...
متن کاملInfinitely Generated Free Nilpotent Groups: Completeness of the Automorphism Groups
Baumslag conjectured in the 1970s that the automorphism tower of a finitely generated free group (free nilpotent group) must be very short. Dyer and Formanek [9] justified the conjecture concerning finitely generated free groups in the “sharpest sense” by proving that the automorphism group Aut(Fn) of a non-abelian free group Fn of finite rank n is complete. Recall that a group G is said to be ...
متن کاملFree Two-step Nilpotent Groups Whose Automorphism Group Is Complete
Dyer and Formanek (1976) proved that if N is a free nilpotent group of class two and of rank 6= 1, 3, then the automorphism group Aut(N) of N is complete. The main result of this paper states that the automorphism group of an infinitely generated free nilpotent group of class two is also complete.
متن کاملOn the Automorphism Tower of Free Nilpotent Groups
On the Automorphism Tower of Free Nilpotent Groups Martin Dimitrov Kassabov 2003 In this thesis I study the automorphism tower of free nilpo-tent groups. Our main tool in studying the automorphism tower is to embed every group as a lattice in some Lie group. Using known rigidity results the automorphism group of the discrete group can be embedded into the automorphism group of the Lie group. Th...
