The tame automorphism group of an affine quadric threefold acting on a square complex

Cinzia Bisi, Jean-Philippe Furter, Stéphane Lamy (2014)

Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques

Similarity:

We study the group $Tame ({SL}_{2})$ of tame automorphisms of a smooth affine $3$ -dimensional quadric, which we can view as the underlying variety of ${SL}_{2} (ℂ)$ . We construct a square complex on which the group admits a natural cocompact action, and we prove that the complex is $CAT (0)$ and hyperbolic. We propose two applications of this construction: We show that any finite subgroup in $Tame ({SL}_{2})$ is linearizable, and that $Tame ({SL}_{2})$ satisfies the Tits alternative.

Automorphisms of $(λ) / ℐ_{κ}$

Paul Larson, Paul McKenney (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study conditions on automorphisms of Boolean algebras of the form $(λ) / ℐ_{κ}$ (where λ is an uncountable cardinal and $ℐ_{κ}$ is the ideal of sets of cardinality less than κ ) which allow one to conclude that a given automorphism is trivial. We show (among other things) that every automorphism of $(2^{κ}) / ℐ_{κ ⁺}$ which is trivial on all sets of cardinality κ⁺ is trivial, and that $M A_{ℵ ₁}$ implies both that every automorphism of (ℝ)/Fin is trivial on a cocountable set and that every automorphism of (ℝ)/Ctble is trivial. ...

Artinian automorphisms of infinite groups

Antonella Leone (2006)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

An automorphism a of a group G is called an artinian automorphism if for every strictly descending chain $H_{1}>H_{2}>\cdots>H_{n}>\cdots$ of subgroups of G there exists a positive integer $m$ such that $(H_{n})^{a}=H_{n}$ for every $n\geq m$ . In this paper we show that in many cases the group of all artinian automorphisms of $G$ coincides with the group of all power automorphisms of $G$ .

Automorphisms and derivations of a Fréchet algebra of locally integrable functions

F. Ghahramani, J. McClure (1992)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We find representations for the automorphisms, derivations and multipliers of the Fréchet algebra $L ¹_{l o c}$ of locally integrable functions on the half-line $ℝ^{+}$ . We show, among other things, that every automorphism θ of $L ¹_{l o c}$ is of the form $θ = φ_{a} e^{λ X} e^{D}$ , where D is a derivation, X is the operator of multiplication by coordinate, λ is a complex number, a > 0, and $φ_{a}$ is the dilation operator $(φ_{a} f) (x) = a f (a x)$ ( $f \in L ¹_{l o c}$ , $x \in ℝ^{+}$ ). It is also shown that the automorphism group is a topological group with the topology of uniform convergence...

The group of automorphisms of $L_{\infty}$ is algebraically reflexive

Félix Cabello Sánchez (2004)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We study the reflexivity of the automorphism (and the isometry) group of the Banach algebras $L_{\infty} (μ)$ for various measures μ. We prove that if μ is a non-atomic σ-finite measure, then the automorphism group (or the isometry group) of $L_{\infty} (μ)$ is [algebraically] reflexive if and only if $L_{\infty} (μ)$ is *-isomorphic to $L_{\infty} [0, 1]$ . For purely atomic measures, we show that the group of automorphisms (or isometries) of $ℓ_{\infty} (Γ)$ is reflexive if and only if Γ has non-measurable cardinal. So, for most “practical” purposes, the automorphism...

On automorphisms of the Banach space $ℓ_{\infty} / c ₀$

Piotr Koszmider, Cristóbal Rodríguez-Porras (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate Banach space automorphisms $T : ℓ_{\infty} / c ₀ \to ℓ_{\infty} / c ₀$ focusing on the possibility of representing their fragments of the form $T_{B, A} : ℓ_{\infty} (A) / c ₀ (A) \to ℓ_{\infty} (B) / c ₀ (B)$ for A,B ⊆ ℕ infinite by means of linear operators from $ℓ_{\infty} (A)$ into $ℓ_{\infty} (B)$ , infinite A×B-matrices, continuous maps from B* = βB∖B into A*, or bijections from B to A. This leads to the analysis of general bounded linear operators on $ℓ_{\infty} / c ₀$ . We present many examples, introduce and investigate several classes of operators, for some of them we obtain satisfactory representations and for...

Polycyclic groups with automorphisms of order four

Tao Xu, Fang Zhou, Heguo Liu (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

In this paper, we study the structure of polycyclic groups admitting an automorphism of order four on the basis of Neumann’s result, and prove that if $α$ is an automorphism of order four of a polycyclic group $G$ and the map $ϕ : G \to G$ defined by $g^{ϕ} = [g, α]$ is surjective, then $G$ contains a characteristic subgroup $H$ of finite index such that the second derived subgroup $H^{''}$ is included in the centre of $H$ and $C_{H} (α^{2})$ is abelian, both $C_{G} (α^{2})$ and $G / [G, α^{2}]$ are abelian-by-finite. These results extend recent and classical results in...

Automorphisms of the algebra of operators in $^{p}$ preserving conditioning

Ryszard Jajte (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let α be an isometric automorphism of the algebra $_{p}$ of bounded linear operators in $^{p} [0, 1]$ (p ≥ 1). Then α transforms conditional expectations into conditional expectations if and only if α is induced by a measure preserving isomorphism of [0, 1].

The Banach-Lie Group of Lie Automorphisms of an $H^{*}$ -Algebra

Antonio J. Calderón Martín, Candido Martín González (2007)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We study the Banach-Lie group $\operatorname{Aut}(A^{-})$ of Lie automorphisms of a complex associative $H^{*}$ -algebra. Also some consequences about its Lie algebra, the algebra of Lie derivations of $A$ , are obtained. For a topologically simple $A$ , in the infinite-dimensional case we have $\operatorname{Aut}(A^{-})_{0}=\operatorname{Aut}(A)$ implying $\operatorname{Der}(A)=\operatorname{Der}(A^{-})$ . In the finite dimensional case $\operatorname{Aut}(A^{-})_{0}$ is a direct product of $\operatorname{Aut}(A)$ and a certain subgroup of Lie derivations $\delta$ from $A$ to its center, annihilating commutators.

Equidistribution towards the Green current for holomorphic maps

Tien-Cuong Dinh, Nessim Sibony (2008)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Let $f$ be a non-invertible holomorphic endomorphism of a projective space and $f^{n}$ its iterate of order $n$ . We prove that the pull-back by $f^{n}$ of a generic (in the Zariski sense) hypersurface, properly normalized, converges to the Green current associated to $f$ when $n$ tends to infinity. We also give an analogous result for the pull-back of positive closed $(1, 1)$ -currents and a similar result for regular polynomial automorphisms of $ℂ^{k}$ .

Relative exactness modulo a polynomial map and algebraic $(ℂ^{p}, +)$ -actions

Philippe Bonnet (2003)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

Let $F = (f_{1}, ..., f_{q})$ be a polynomial dominating map from $ℂ^{n}$ to $ℂ^{q}$ . We study the quotient $𝒯^{1} (F)$ of polynomial 1-forms that are exact along the generic fibres of $F$ , by 1-forms of type $d R + \sum a_{i} d f_{i}$ , where $R, a_{1}, ..., a_{q}$ are polynomials. We prove that $𝒯^{1} (F)$ is always a torsion $ℂ [t_{1}, ..., t_{q}]$ -module. Then we determine under which conditions on $F$ we have $𝒯^{1} (F) = 0$ . As an application, we study the behaviour of a class of algebraic $(ℂ^{p}, +)$ -actions on $ℂ^{n}$ , and determine in particular when these actions are trivial.

Homology of origamis with symmetries

Carlos Matheus, Jean-Christophe Yoccoz, David Zmiaikou (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

Given an origami (square-tiled surface) $M$ with automorphism group $Γ$ , we compute the decomposition of the first homology group of $M$ into isotypic $Γ$ -submodules. Through the action of the affine group of $M$ on the homology group, we deduce some consequences for the multiplicities of the Lyapunov exponents of the Kontsevich-Zorich cocycle. We also construct and study several families of interesting origamis illustrating our results.

On automorphisms fixing subnormal subgroups of soluble groups

Silvana Franciosi, Francesco de Giovanni (1988)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

The group $Aut_{sn}G$ of all automorphisms leaving invariant every subnormal subgroup of the group $G$ is studied. In particular it is proved that $Aut_{sn}G$ is metabelian if $G$ is soluble, and that $Aut_{sn}G$ is either finite or abelian if $G$ is polycyclic.

Automorphisms and generalized skew derivations which are strong commutativity preserving on polynomials in prime and semiprime rings

Vincenzo de Filippis (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $R$ be a prime ring of characteristic different from 2, $Q_{r}$ its right Martindale quotient ring and $C$ its extended centroid. Suppose that $F$ , $G$ are generalized skew derivations of $R$ with the same associated automorphism $α$ , and $p (x_{1}, ..., x_{n})$ is a non-central polynomial over $C$ such that $[F (x), α (y)] = G ([x, y])$ for all $x, y \in {p (r_{1}, ..., r_{n}) : r_{1}, ..., r_{n} \in R}$ . Then there exists $λ \in C$ such that $F (x) = G (x) = λ α (x)$ for all $x \in R$ .

Explicit computations of all finite index bimodules for a family of II $_{1}$ factors

Stefaan Vaes (2008)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

We study II $_{1}$ factors $M$ and $N$ associated with good generalized Bernoulli actions of groups having an infinite almost normal subgroup with the relative property (T). We prove the following rigidity result : every finite index $M$ - $N$ -bimodule (in particular, every isomorphism between $M$ and $N$ ) is described by a commensurability of the groups involved and a commensurability of their actions. The fusion algebra of finite index $M$ - $M$ -bimodules is identified with an extended Hecke fusion algebra,...

The natural operators of general affine connections into general affine connections

Jan Kurek, Włodzimierz M. Mikulski (2017)

Annales Universitatis Mariae Curie-Sklodowska, sectio A – Mathematica

Similarity:

We reduce the problem of describing all $ℳ f_{m}$ -natural operators transforming general affine connections on $m$ -manifolds into general affine ones to the known description of all $G L (𝐑^{m})$ -invariant maps $𝐑^{m *} \otimes 𝐑^{m} \to \otimes^{k} 𝐑^{m *} \otimes \otimes^{k} 𝐑^{m}$ for $k = 1, 3$ .

Uniqueness of Cartesian Products of Compact Convex Sets

Zbigniew Lipecki, Viktor Losert, Jiří Spurný (2011)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

Let $X_{i}$ , i∈ I, and $Y_{j}$ , j∈ J, be compact convex sets whose sets of extreme points are affinely independent and let φ be an affine homeomorphism of $\prod_{i \in I} X_{i}$ onto $\prod_{j \in J} Y_{j}$ . We show that there exists a bijection b: I → J such that φ is the product of affine homeomorphisms of $X_{i}$ onto $Y_{b (i)}$ , i∈ I.

Multidimensional self-affine sets: non-empty interior and the set of uniqueness

Kevin G. Hare, Nikita Sidorov (2015)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let M be a d × d real contracting matrix. We consider the self-affine iterated function system Mv-u, Mv+u, where u is a cyclic vector. Our main result is as follows: if $| d e t M | \geq 2^{- 1 / d}$ , then the attractor $A_{M}$ has non-empty interior. We also consider the set $_{M}$ of points in $A_{M}$ which have a unique address. We show that unless M belongs to a very special (non-generic) class, the Hausdorff dimension of $_{M}$ is positive. For this special class the full description of $_{M}$ is given as well. This paper continues our...

The local lifting problem for actions of finite groups on curves

Ted Chinburg, Robert Guralnick, David Harbater (2011)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$ . We study obstructions to lifting to characteristic $0$ the faithful continuous action $φ$ of a finite group $G$ on $k [[t]]$ . To each such $φ$ a theorem of Katz and Gabber associates an action of $G$ on a smooth projective curve $Y$ over $k$ . We say that the KGB obstruction of $φ$ vanishes if $G$ acts on a smooth projective curve $X$ in characteristic $0$ in such a way that $X / H$ and $Y / H$ have the same genus for all subgroups $H \subset G$ . We determine for which $G$ the KGB...

Purity of level $m$ stratifications

Marc-Hubert Nicole, Adrian Vasiu, Torsten Wedhorn (2010)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p > 0$ . Let $D_{m}$ be a ${BT}_{m}$ over $k$ (i.e., an $m$ -truncated Barsotti–Tate group over $k$ ). Let $S$ be a $k$ -scheme and let $X$ be a ${BT}_{m}$ over $S$ . Let $S_{D_{m}} (X)$ be the subscheme of $S$ which describes the locus where $X$ is locally for the fppf topology isomorphic to $D_{m}$ . If $p \geq 5$ , we show that $S_{D_{m}} (X)$ is pure in $S$ , i.e. the immersion $S_{D_{m}} (X) ↪ S$ is affine. For $p \in {2, 3}$ , we prove purity if $D_{m}$ satisfies a certain technical property depending only on its $p$ -torsion $D_{m} [p]$ . For $p \geq 5$ , we apply the developed techniques to show that...

Non-isotropic Hausdorff capacity of exceptional sets for pluri-Green potentials in the unit ball of ℂⁿ

Kuzman Adzievski (2006)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We study questions related to exceptional sets of pluri-Green potentials $V_{μ}$ in the unit ball B of ℂⁿ in terms of non-isotropic Hausdorff capacity. For suitable measures μ on the ball B, the pluri-Green potentials $V_{μ}$ are defined by $V_{μ} (z) = \int_{B} l o g (1 / | ϕ_{z} (w) |) d μ (w)$ , where for a fixed z ∈ B, $ϕ_{z}$ denotes the holomorphic automorphism of B satisfying $ϕ_{z} (0) = z$ , $ϕ_{z} (z) = 0$ and $(ϕ_{z} \circ ϕ_{z}) (w) = w$ for every w ∈ B. If dμ(w) = f(w)dλ(w), where f is a non-negative measurable function of B, and λ is the measure on B, invariant under all holomorphic automorphisms of...

Finiteness problems on Nash manifolds and Nash sets

José F. Fernando, José Manuel Gamboa, Jesús M. Ruiz (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study here several finiteness problems concerning affine Nash manifolds $M$ and Nash subsets $X$ . Three main results are: (i) A Nash function on a semialgebraic subset $Z$ of $M$ has a Nash extension to an open semialgebraic neighborhood of $Z$ in $M$ , (ii) A Nash set $X$ that has only normal crossings in $M$ can be covered by finitely many open semialgebraic sets $U$ equipped with Nash diffeomorphisms $(u_{1}, \dots, u_{m}) : U \to ℝ^{m}$ such that $U \cap X = {u_{1} \dots u_{r} = 0}$ , (iii) Every affine Nash manifold with corners $N$ is a closed subset of an affine Nash...

Expansion in $S L_{d} (𝒪_{K} / I)$ , $I$ square-free

Péter P. Varjú (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let $S$ be a fixed symmetric finite subset of $S L_{d} (𝒪_{K})$ that generates a Zariski dense subgroup of $S L_{d} (𝒪_{K})$ when we consider it as an algebraic group over $m a t h b b Q$ by restriction of scalars. We prove that the Cayley graphs of $S L_{d} (𝒪_{K} / I)$ with respect to the projections of $S$ is an expander family if $I$ ranges over square-free ideals of $𝒪_{K}$ if $d = 2$ and $K$ is an arbitrary numberfield, or if $d = 3$ and $K = ℚ$ .
