Parageometric Outer Automorphisms of Free Groups
We study those fully irreducible outer automorphisms φ of a finite rank free group Fr which are parageometric, meaning that the attracting fixed point of φ in the boundary of outer space is a geometric R-tree with respect to the action of Fr, but φ itself is not a geometric outer automorphism in that it is not represented by a homeomorphism of a surface. Our main result shows that the expansion...
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 کاملAutomorphisms of Hyperkähler Manifolds in the View of Topological Entropy
First we show that any group of automorphisms of null-entropy of a projective hyperkähler manifold M is almost abelian of rank at most ρ(M) − 2. We then characterize automorphisms of a K3 surface with nullentropy and those with positive entropy in algebro-geometric terms. We also give an example of a group of automorphisms which is not almost abelian in each dimension.
متن کاملIntersections 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 کاملA Characterization of Periodic Automorphisms of a Free Group
Let 9 be an automorphism of finite order of a free group X. We characterise the action of 9 on X by showing that X has a free basis which is the disjoint union of finite subsets Sj, where if S,, ~ {uq, «,,..., uk) then u¡9 ~ ul+x (0 < 1 < k) and uk9 = AjUqBj for some A}, B¡ in X and e = ±1. As an application of this result, we obtain a list of the conjugacy classes of periodic automorphisms of ...
