If C is the commutation graph of G, we show how Aut(G) decomposes in terms of the connected components of C: obtaining a particularly clear decomposition theorem in the special case where C has no isolated vertices. If C has no vertices of a type we call dominated then we give a semi-direct decompostion of Aut(G) into a subgroup of locally conjugating automorphisms by the subgroup stabilising a certain lattice of \"admissible subsets\" of the vertices of C. We then characterise those graphs for which Aut(G) is a product (not necessarily semi-direct) of two such subgroups.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2012-04-24T18:57:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20F36", "20E36" ], "keywords": [ "partially commutative groups", "combinatorial subgroups", "automorphism group aut", "particularly clear decomposition theorem", "semi-direct decompostion" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 63, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1106.2331D" } } }
