Commensurations of Out ( F n )

Benson Farb, Michael Handel (2007)

Publications Mathématiques de l'IHÉS

Similarity:

Let Out(F) denote the outer automorphism group of the free group F with >3. We prove that for any finite index subgroup Γ<Out(F), the group Aut(Γ) is isomorphic to the normalizer of Γ in Out(F). We prove that Γ is : every injective homomorphism Γ→Γ is surjective. Finally, we prove that the abstract commensurator Comm(Out(F)) is isomorphic to Out(F).

The Automorphism Group of the Free Algebra of Rank Two

Cohn, P. (2002)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The theorem of Czerniakiewicz and Makar-Limanov, that all the automorphisms of a free algebra of rank two are tame is proved here by showing that the group of these automorphisms is the free product of two groups (amalgamating their intersection), the group of all affine automorphisms and the group of all triangular automorphisms. The method consists in finding a bipolar structure. As a consequence every finite subgroup of automorphisms (in characteristic zero) is shown to be conjugate...
