What is it about?

We study authomorphisms of $Ind$-groups of polynomial automorphisms (wich are singular) via tame approximations. Such objects were pioneeered in research by B.I.Plotkin We obtain a number of properties of $Aut(Aut(A))$, where $A$ is the polynomial or free associative algebra over the base field $K$. We prove that all $Ind$-scheme automorphisms of $Aut(K[x_1,\dots,x_n])$ are inner for $n\ge 3$, and all $Ind$-scheme automorphisms of $Aut(K\langle x_1,\dots, x_n\rangle)$ are semi-inner. As an application, we prove that $Aut(K[x_1,\dots,x_n])$ cannot be embedded into $Aut(K\langle x_1,\dots,x_n\rangle)$ by the natural abelianization. In other words, the {\it Automorphism Group Lifting Problem} has a negative solution. We explore close connection between the above results and the Jacobian conjecture type questions, formulate the Jacobian conjecture for fields of any characteristic.

Why is it important?

Naive approach to Ind-schemes due to singularity effects fails. We overcame this effect using parametric curves and preserving infinity trick. This is important tool for Ind-schemes theory.

Perspectives

AKSorry, your browser does not support inline SVG.

This technique seems to be useful for other types of Ind-schemes, in particular for symplectomorphisms and Weil algebra endomorphisms in spirit of Kontsevich conjecture
