If H is an arithmetic subgroup of G, we provide an explicit description of every automorphism of H. From this description, it follows that every automorphism of H virtually extends to a virtual automorphism of G.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-07-20T21:59:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20G25", "22D45" ], "keywords": [ "arithmetic subgroup", "positive characteristic", "two-dimensional unipotent group", "local field", "explicit description" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 20, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2000math......7127L" } } }
