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 ...

We show that the automorphism group of a divisible design D is isomorhic to a subgroup H of index 1 or 2 in the automorphism group Aut C(D) of the associated constant weight code. Only in very special cases, H is not the full automorphism group.

The aim of this paper is to show that the automorphism and isometry groups of the suspension of B(H), H being a separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space, are algebraically reflexive. This means that every local automorphism, respectively local surjective isometry of C0(R) ⊗ B(H) is an automorphism, respectively a surjective isometry.

Denote the n × n toroidal queen’s graph by Qn. We find its automorphism group Aut(Qn) for each positive integer n, showing that for n ≥ 6, Aut(Qn) is generated by the translations, the group of the square, the homotheties, and (for odd n) the automorphism (x, y) → (y + x, y − x). For each n we find the automorphism classes of edges of Qn, in particular showing that for n > 1, Qn is edge-transit...

in this paper we study the coprime graph of a group $g$. the coprime graph of a group $g$, is a graph whose vertices are elements of $g$ and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent iff $(|x|,|y|)=1$. in this paper we classify all the groups which the coprime graph is a complete r-partite graph or a planar graph. also we study the automorphism group of the coprime graph.

The purpose of this paper is to complete the classification of binary self-dual [48, 24, 10] codes with an automorphism of odd prime order. We prove that if there is a self-dual [48, 24, 10] code with an automorphism of type p-(c, f) with p being an odd prime, then p = 3, c = 16, f = 0. By considering only an automorphism of type 3-(16, 0), we prove that there are exactly 264 inequivalent self-...

We discuss anomalies associated with outer automorphisms in gauge theories based on classical groups, namely charge conjugations for $SU(N)$ and parities $SO(2r)$. emphasize the inequivalence (yet related by a flavor transformation) between two versions of conjugation $SU(2k)$, $SO(2r)$, $E_6$ symmetries. The subgroups that commute are identified. Some can lead to paradox, which is resolved obs...

We study the Cox realization of an affine variety, i.e., a canonical representation of a normal affine variety with finitely generated divisor class group as a quotient of a factorially graded affine variety by an action of the Neron-Severi quasitorus. The realization is described explicitly for the quotient space of a linear action of a finite group. A universal property of this realization is...
