AbstractIn this paper we shall show how combinatorial methods can be applied to the study of maps on orientable surfaces. Our main concern is with maps which possess a certain kind of symmetry, called vertex-transitivity. We show how an extension of the well-known method of Cayley can be used to construct such maps, and we give conditions which suffice for the automorphism groups of these maps to have non trivial vertex-stabilizers. Finally, we investigate the special case when the skeleton of the map is a complete graph; a classical theorem of Frobenius then implies that all vertex-transitive maps are given by our extension of Cayley's construction.

AbstractWe provide some necessary and some sufficient conditions for the automorphism group of a free product of (freely indecomposable, not infinite cyclic) groups to have Property (FA). The additional sufficient conditions are all met by finite groups, and so this case is fully characterised. Therefore, this paper generalises the work of N. Leder [Serre’s Property FA for automorphism groups of free products, preprint (2018), https://arxiv.org/abs/1810.06287v1]. for finite cyclic groups, as well as resolving the open case of that paper.

AbstractIn this article we study the transitivity of the group of automorphisms of real algebraic surfaces. We characterize real algebraic surfaces with very transitive automorphism groups. We give applications to the classification of real algebraic models of compact surfaces: these applications yield new insight into the geometry of the real locus, proving several surprising facts on this geometry. This geometry can be thought of as a half-way point between the biregular and birational geometries.
