The Euler Characteristic of the Whitehead Automorphism Group of a Free Product

  • CRAIG JENSEN
چکیده

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 Gi) and Out(∗ n i=1 Gi) when the Gi are finite; and the palindromic automorphism groups of finite rank free groups.

Decorated hypertrees

C. Jensen, J. McCammond and J. Meier have used weighted hypertrees to compute the Euler characteristic of a subgroup of the automorphism group of a free product. Weighted hypertrees also appear in the study of the homology of the hypertree poset. We link them to decorated hypertrees after a general study on decorated hypertrees, which we enumerate using box trees.

On the Sn-equivariant Euler characteristic of M2,n.

The Getzler’s formula relates the Sn-equivariant Hodge-Deligne polynomial of the space of ordered tuples of distinct points on a given variety X with the Hodge-Deligne polynomial of X. We obtain the analogue of this formula for the case when X has a nontrivial automorphism group. Collecting together all strata of M2 with different automorphism groups, we derive a formula for the Sn-equivariant ...

Free Vibration Analysis of a Sloping-frame: Closed-form Solution versus Finite Element Solution and Modification of the Characteristic Matrices (TECHNICAL NOTE)

This article deals with the free vibration analysis and determination of the seismic parameters of a sloping-frame which consists of three members; a horizontal, a vertical, and an inclined member. The both ends of the frame are clamped, and the members are rigidly connected at joint points. The individual members of the frame are assumed to be governed by the transverse vibration theory of an ...

Applications of ordinary voltage graph theory to graph embeddability

In part I, we showed that there was an infinite family of graphs not embeddable in the torus in such a way that a free action of any group on any of the graphs extends to a cellular automorphism of the torus. We used a homologically-driven analysis of ordinary voltage graph embeddings. An ordinary voltage graph embedding with voltage group A in a surface encodes a derived embedding of a derived...
