Let F be a finitely generated free group, and let n denote its rank. A subgroup H of F is said to be automorphism-fixed, or auto-fixed for short, if there exists a set S of automorphisms of F such that H is precisely the set of elements fixed by every element of S; similarly, H is 1-auto-fixed if th

A sufficient condition is obtained for the residual torsion-free nilpotence of certain finitely presented metabelian groups that arise from a matrix representa-Ε½ . tion developed by Magnus 1939, Ann. of Math. 40, 764α768 for metabelian Ε½ groups. Using this condition and a construction due to Baumsla
Let F be a free group of rank n. Denote by Out F its outer automorphism n n group, that is, its automorphism group modulo its inner automorphism group. For arbitrary n, by considering group actions on finite connected graphs, we derived the maximum order of finite abelian subgroups in Out F . Moreov
We show that the representations of certain automorphism groups of a free group afforded by compact Lie groups as described by Long can be decomposed into sums of trivial representations and MagnusαGassner representations.
We will show that for any integer n G 0, the automorphism group of an abelian p-group G, p G 3, contains a unique subgroup which is maximal with respect to being normal and having exponent less than or equal to p n . This subgroup is βΈ l Fix p n G, where βΈ is the unique maximal normal p-subgroup of
