Automorphisms of permutational wreath products
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 April 2009
Abstract
Ore (1942) studied the automorphisms of finite monomial groups and Holmes (1956, pp. 23–93) has given the form of the automorphisms of the restricted monomial groups in the infinite case. The automorphism group of a standard wreath product has been studied by Houghton (1962) and Segal (1973, Chapter 4). Monomial groups and standard wreath products are both special cases of permutational wreath product. Here we investigate the automorphisms of the permutational wreath product and consider to what extent the results holding in the special cases remain true for the general construction. Our results extend those of Bunt (1968).
