A criterion of isomorphism for symmetry groups of set ideals is provided in terms of ideal quotients and cardinal invariants. Furthermore, set ideals with complete symmetry group are characterized. They form a wide class, comprising, for example, all uniform dense ideals and the ideals of ‘thin’ sets in separable metric spaces. If the symmetry group of a set ideal is not complete, then its outer automorphism group is shown to be cyclic of order 2.

It is shown that each group is the outer automorphism group of a simple group. Surprisingly, the proof is mainly based on the theory of ordered or relational structures and their symmetry groups. By a recent result of Droste and Shelah, any group is the outer automorphism group Out (Aut T) of the automorphism group Aut T of a doubly homogeneous chain (T, [les ]). However, Aut T is never simple. Following recent investigations on automorphism groups of circles, it is possible to turn (T, [les ]) into a circle C such that Out (Aut T) [bcong ] Out (Aut C). The unavoidable normal subgroups in Aut T evaporate in Aut C, which is now simple, and the result follows.

AbstractWe give an explicit construction of a continuous trace C*algebra with prescribed Dixmier-Douady class, and with only finite-dimensional irreducible representations. These algebras often have non-trivial automorphisms, and we show how a recent description of the outer automorphism group of a stable continuous trace C*algebra follows easily from our main result. Since our motivation came from work on a new notion of central separable algebras, we explore the connections between this purely algebraic subject and C*a1gebras.

In [Li and Chen, A new characterization of the simple group [Formula: see text], Sib. Math. J. 53(2) (2012) 213–247.], it is proved that the simple group [Formula: see text] is uniquely determined by the set of orders of its maximal abelian subgroups. Also in [Momen and Khosravi, Groups with the same orders of maximal abelian subgroups as [Formula: see text], Monatsh. Math. 174 (2013) 285–303], the authors proved that if [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is not a Mersenne prime, then every finite group with the same orders of maximal abelian subgroups as [Formula: see text], is isomorphic to [Formula: see text] or an extension of [Formula: see text] by a subgroup of the outer automorphism group of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we prove that if [Formula: see text] is a finite group with the same orders of maximal abelian subgroups as [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] has a unique nonabelian composition factor which is isomorphic to [Formula: see text].
