Automorphisms of a Free Group of Infinite Rank
نویسنده
چکیده
The problem of classifying the automorphisms of a free group of infinite countable rank is investigated. Quite a reasonable generating set for the group AutF∞ is described. Some new subgroups of this group and structural results for them are presented. The main result says that the group of all automorphisms is generated (modulo the IA-automorphisms) by strings and lower triangular automorphisms.

Automorphisms of Coxeter Groups of Rank Three
If W is an infinite rank 3 Coxeter group, whose Coxeter diagram has no infinite bonds, then the automorphism group of W is generated by the inner automorphisms and any automorphisms induced from automorphisms of the Coxeter diagram. Indeed Aut(W ) is the semi-direct product of Inn(W ) and the group of graph automorphisms.

Let $A$ be a nite dimensional $k-$algebra and $R$ be a locally bounded category such that $R rightarrow R/G = A$ is a Galois covering dened by the action of a torsion-free group of automorphisms of $R$. Following [30], we provide criteria on the convex subcategories of a strongly simply connected category R in order to be a cycle- nite category and describe the module category of $A$. We p...
متن کاملThe Frattini module and p ′ - automorphisms of free pro - p groups
If a non-trivial subgroup A of the group of continuous automorphisms of a noncyclic free pro-p group F has finite order, not divisible by p, then the group of fixed points FixF (A) has infinite rank. The semi-direct product F>!A is the universal p-Frattini cover of a finite group G, and so is the projective limit of a sequence of finite groups starting with G, each a canonical group extension o...
متن کاملAutomorphisms of nearly finite Coxeter groups
Suppose that W is an infinite Coxeter group of finite rank n, and suppose that W has a finite parabolic subgroup WJ of rank n 1. Suppose also that the Coxeter diagram of W has no edges with infinite labels. Then any automorphism of W that preserves reflections lies in the subgroup of AutðWÞ generated by the inner automorphisms and the automorphisms induced by symmetries of the Coxeter graph. If...
