Let C = F [x1, x2, . . . , xn] be the polynomial ring in the variables x1, x2, . . . , xn over a field F , and let AutC be the group of automorphisms of C as an algebra over F . An automorphism τ ∈ AutC is called elementary if it has a form τ : (x1, . . . , xi−1, xi, xi+1, . . . , xn) 7→ (x1, . . . , xi−1, αxi + f, xi+1, . . . , xn), where 0 6= α ∈ F, f ∈ F [x1, . . . , xi−1, xi+1, . . . , xn]. The subgroup of AutC generated by all the elementary automorphisms is called the tame subgroup, and…

Let k be a field of characteristic p > 0. We discuss the automorphisms of the polynomial ring k[x1, . . . , xn] of order p, or equivalently the Z/pZ-actions on the affine space A k . When n = 2, such
In this paper, we discuss subgroups of the automorphism group of the polynomial ring in n variables over a field of characteristic zero. An automorphism F is said to be {\it co-tame} if the subgroup
Let F = (F1, . . . , Fn) : Cn → Cn be any polynomial mapping. The multidegree of F , denoted mdegF, is the sequence of positive integers (degF1, . . . , degFn). In this paper we address the following
Let F=(F_1,...,F_n):C^n --> C^n be a polynomial mapping. By the multidegree of the mapping F we mean mdeg F=(deg F_1,...,deg F_n), an element of N^n. The aim of this paper is to study the following
Let B = k[X0, Xi, X2] be the polynomial ring in three variables over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero. We consider the homogeneous case of the problem of describing locally

Abstract. We describe the automorphism groups of elliptic Poisson algebras on poly-nomial algebras in three variables and give an explicit set of generators and deﬁningrelations for this group.

We study z-automorphisms of the polynomial algebra K[x, y, z] and the free associative algebra K 〈x, y, z〉 over a field K, i.e., automorphisms that fix the variable z. We survey some recent results

Let A = F [x1, x2, . . . , xn] be a ring of polynomials over a field F on the variables x1, x2, . . . , xn. It is well known (see, for example, [11]) that the study of automorphisms of the algebra A
Let R be a commutative domain with 1. R(x, y) stands for the free associative algebra of rank 2 over R; R[x, y>] is the polynomial algebra over R in the commuting indeterminates x' and y. We prove
We discuss some problems concerning the group GAn(k) of automorphisms of a polynomial algebra [k]n = k[X1,...,Xn] over a commutative ring k . We view GAn(k) as a non-linear generalization of its

We obtain a characterization of tame automorphisms of the free Leibniz algebra in two variables. It gives an algorithm to recognize tame automorphisms. Using these results we construct a wild
The problem of speciality and i-speciality is considered for Jordan superalgebras related with Poisson superalgebras. The quantizations of Poisson superalgebras play an important role in the
