Automorphism groups of combinatorial Hantzsche-Wendt groups

Rafał Lutowski, Andrzej Szczepański, Richard Weidmann

Abstract

Combinatorial Hantzsche-Wendt groups were introduced by W. Craig and P.A. Linnell. Every such a group $G_n$, where $n$ is a natural number, encodes the holonomy action of any $n+1$-dimensional Hantzsche-Wendt manifold. $G_2$ is the fundamental group of the classical Hantzsche-Wendt manifold -- the only one $3$-dimensional oriented flat manifold with non-cyclic holonomy group. In this article, we describe the structure of the automorphism and of the outer automorphism groups of combinatorial Hantzsche-Wendt groups.

Automorphism groups of combinatorial Hantzsche-Wendt groups

Abstract

Combinatorial Hantzsche-Wendt groups were introduced by W. Craig and P.A. Linnell. Every such a group , where is a natural number, encodes the holonomy action of any -dimensional Hantzsche-Wendt manifold. is the fundamental group of the classical Hantzsche-Wendt manifold -- the only one -dimensional oriented flat manifold with non-cyclic holonomy group. In this article, we describe the structure of the automorphism and of the outer automorphism groups of combinatorial Hantzsche-Wendt groups.

Key Result

Lemma 3.1

Let $a=(x_1^2)^{{z_1}} \cdots (x_n^2)^{{z_n}}\in A$. Then $(x_ia)^2=(x_i^2)^{2{z_i}+1}$
