Classification of automorphisms of free group of rank 2 by ranks of fixed point subgroups
نویسنده
چکیده
We use the following rule of composition of automorphisms: if φ, ψ ∈ Aut(F2) and x ∈ F2 then φψ(x) = ψ(φ(x)). For x ∈ F2 denote by St(x) the stabilizer of x in Aut(F2). For a subset X of a group denote by 〈X〉 the subgroup generated by X. Denote [x, y] = x−1y−1xy, x = y−1xy. For g ∈ F2 denote by ĝ the automorphism induced by the conjugation by g: ĝ(x) = g−1xg, x ∈ F2. Let − : Aut(F2) → GL2(Z) be the homomorphism induced by the abelianization of F2. It is known that the group of inner automorphisms Inn(F2) is the kernel of this homomorphism and that

Intersections of automorphism fixed subgroups in the free group of rank three
We show that in the free group of rank 3, given an arbitrary number of automorphisms, the intersection of their fixed subgroups is equal to the fixed subgroup of some other single automorphism. AMS Classification 20E05; 20F28
متن کاملSome Remarks on Commuting Fixed Point Free Automorphisms of Groups
In this article we will find necessary and sufficient conditions for a fixed point free automorphism (fpf automorphism) of a group to be a commuting automorphism. For a given prime we find the smallest order of a non abelian p-group admitting a commuting f...
متن کاملAutomorphisms of a Free Group of Infinite Rank
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.
متن کاملAchievable Ranks of Intersections of Finitely Generated Free Groups
We answer a question due to A. Myasnikov by proving that all expected ranks occur as the ranks of intersections of finitely generated subgroups of free groups. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 20E05 Let F be a free group. Let H and K be nontrivial finitely generated subgroups of F . It is a theorem of Howson [1] that H ∩K has finite rank. H. Neumann proved in [2] that rank(H ∩K)− 1 ≤ ...
متن کاملFrobenius groups of automorphisms and their fixed points
Suppose that a finite group G admits a Frobenius group of automorphisms FH with kernel F and complement H such that the fixed-point subgroup of F is trivial: CG(F ) = 1. In this situation various properties of G are shown to be close to the corresponding properties of CG(H). By using Clifford’s theorem it is proved that the order |G| is bounded in terms of |H| and |CG(H)|, the rank of G is boun...
