On Automorphism Groups of Free Products of Finite Groups, I: Proper Actions
نویسنده
چکیده
If G is a free product of finite groups, let ΣAut1(G) denote all (necessarily symmetric) automorphisms of G that do not permute factors in the free product. We show that a McCullough-Miller [D. McCullough and A. Miller, Symmetric Automorphisms of Free Products, Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 122 (1996), no. 582] and Gutiérrez-Krstić [M. Gutiérrez and S. Krstić, Normal forms for the group of basis-conjugating automorphisms of a free group, International Journal of Algebra and Computation 8 (1998) 631-669] derived (also see Bogley-Krstić [W. Bogley and S. Krstić, String groups and other subgroups of Aut(Fn), preprint] space of pointed trees is an EΣAut1(G)-space for these groups.

متن کاملThe Euler Characteristic of the Whitehead Automorphism Group of a Free Product
A combinatorial summation identity over the lattice of labelled hypertrees is established that allows one to gain concrete information on the Euler characteristics of various automorphism groups of free products of groups. In particular, we establish formulae for the Euler characteristics of: the group of Whitehead automorphisms Wh(∗ i=1 Gi) when the Gi are of finite homological type; Aut(∗ i=1...
متن کاملOn the nilpotency class of the automorphism group of some finite p-groups
Let $G$ be a $p$-group of order $p^n$ and $Phi$=$Phi(G)$ be the Frattini subgroup of $G$. It is shown that the nilpotency class of $Autf(G)$, the group of all automorphisms of $G$ centralizing $G/ Fr(G)$, takes the maximum value $n-2$ if and only if $G$ is of maximal class. We also determine the nilpotency class of $Autf(G)$ when $G$ is a finite abelian $p$-group.
متن کاملGroups of homeomorphisms of one-manifolds, I: actions of nonlinear groups
This self-contained paper is part of a series [FF2, FF3] on actions by diffeomorphisms of infinite groups on compact manifolds. The two main results presented here are: 1. Any homomorphism of (almost any) mapping class group or automorphism group of a free group into Diff+(S ), r ≥ 2 is trivial. For r = 0 Nielsen showed that in many cases nontrivial (even faithful) representations exist. Somewh...
متن کاملA Note on Absolute Central Automorphisms of Finite $p$-Groups
Let $G$ be a finite group. The automorphism $sigma$ of a group $G$ is said to be an absolute central automorphism, if for all $xin G$, $x^{-1}x^{sigma}in L(G)$, where $L(G)$ be the absolute centre of $G$. In this paper, we study some properties of absolute central automorphisms of a given finite $p$-group.
