  Inner Automorphisms   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
An automorphism that is not an inner automorphism is an outer automorphism.
The composition of two inner automorphisms, derived from x and y, is the inner automorphism derived from yx.
Thus the inner automorphisms form a subgroup of all the automorphisms of g.

By associating the element a in G with the inner automorphism f in Inn(G) as above, one obtains an isomorphism between the factor group G/Z(G) (where Z(G) is the center of G) and Inn(G).
At the opposite end of the spectrum, it is possible that the inner automorphisms exhaust the entire automorphism group---a group whose automorphisms are all inner is called complete.
The notion of inner automorphism for Lie algebras is compatible with the notion for groups in the sense that an inner automorphism of a Lie group induces a unique inner automorphism of the corresponding Lie algebra.

Inner automorphisms: Inn(G) is isomorphic to the quotient of G by its center.
Under function composition, inner automorphisms form a normal subgroup, denoted Inn(G), of the group of the automorphisms on G, denoted Aut(G) (itself a subgroup of Sym(G), the symmetric group on G).
Automorphic functions (originally dubbed "Fuchsian functions" by Poincaré, around 1884) are meromorphic functions (i.e., ratios of two holomorphic functions; analytic functions of a complex variable) which are invariant under a countable infinity of Möbius transformations.

Automorphisms are represented by their action on the sag group generating set of the input group.
The performance of the automorphism group algorithm is highly dependent on the structure of the input group.
It is followed by a description of automorphism group elements and their operations (see Automorphism Group Elements and Operations for Automorphism Group Elements).

That all the automorphisms -- regarded as permutations of the elements of the given group -- themselves form a group, is readily appreciated.
As has been explained, the identity automorphism is obtained by transforming each element of the group by the transforming element 1, and we let this identity automorphism correspond with the first row of the above array (depicting the six automorphisms, derived by the interchange of generators).
The set of all possible automorphisms of the group G itself forms a group under successive application of those permutations, and is called the automorphism group of G, i.e.

 Outer automorphism group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, the outer automorphism group of a group G is the quotient of the automorphism group Aut(G) by its inner automorphism group Inn(G).

The outer automorphism group of a finite simple group in some infinite family of finite simple groups can almost always be given by a uniform formula that works for all elements of the family.

That fact rarely holds for generalized conjugation, but for conjugation produced by an inner automorphism, we are at least guaranteed that {\it some} element falls into a conjugacy class by itself.
A purely empirical observation that might be made on the basis of the examples given in Section~\ref{sec-eg} is that when $\phi$ is not an inner automorphism, $\phi$-conjugacy classes tend to be larger in size and fewer in number than ordinary conjugacy classes.
Throughout this section, $\phi$ and $\psi$ denote automorphisms with the property that $\phi\psi\inv$ is an inner automorphism.

 Automorphisms
The elements of a group of automorphisms are automorphisms of the base group, so Magma treats them as both homomorphisms and group elements.
Let A be a group of automorphisms of a group G and let i be an integer such that -n <= i <= n, where n is the number of generators of A. This operator returns the i-th generator for A. A negative subscript indicates that the inverse of the generator is to be created.
Let A be a group of automorphisms of a group G. Given an automorphism f of G, represented as a Magma map, this function returns the element of A corresponding to f.

An automorphism is an isomorphism of a group with itself.
In fact an automorphism is a permutation of the group elements such that the structure (of the table) is preserved.
Geometrically this (inner) automorphism can be interpreted as an interchange of the mirrors a and c together with an interchange of the mirrors b and d.

Automorphisms that are not inner are called outer automorphisms.
Other relevant concepts include those of an inner automorphism of a monoid (a semi-group with a unit element) and an inner automorphism of a ring (associative with a unit element), which are introduced in a similar way using invertible elements.

The centre of the group has order 2, and is generated by x^2 = -I. The inner automorphism group is the group modulo its centre, which is PSL(2,Z), and is isomorphic to the free product C_2 * C_3.
The full automorphism group is at least twice as big as that, because it contains PGL(2,Z), which is the image of integral matrices with determinant 1 or -1.
Each inner automorphism of G induces the trivial automorphism of G/[G,G], so the inner automorphisms of G lie in ker(phi).

None of these automorphisms is inner, as can be seen by looking at the induced actions on the abelianization G/[G,G].
The last is inverted by the automorphism sending a -> b a^(-1) b -> a and has a cube equal to the automorphism sending a -> a^(-1) c b -> b^(-1) c where c is the commutator a b^(-1) a^(-1) b.
These three automorphisms together with the inner automorphisms by a and b generate all of Aut(G), and I seem to recall only three generators are really needed; I don't know what sorts of relations bind them.

If $G\\lhd H$, then conjugation by any\ element $h\\in H$ gives a well-defined (but not necessarily inner)\ automorphism of $G$; the $\\Ad h$ notation will be used in such cases\ as well.\ \ Earlier, the notations $Z^\\phi_x$ and $C^\\phi_x$ were introduced for\ the $\\phi$-centralizer and the $\\phi$-conjugacy class of $x$,\ respectively.
Thus\ $\\ker^\\infty\\phi$ is a normal subgroup.\ \\end\{proof\}\ \ \\begin\{prop\}\ Given an endomorphism $\\phi: G\\to G$, the induced map\ $\\phi^\{\\ker\}:G/\\ker^\\infty\\phi \\to G/\\ker^\\infty\\phi$ is an automorphism.
This map clearly preserves the action of\ that generator on $G$; furthermore, it is well defined since powers of\ those generators which are inner automorphisms have been identified\ with the appropriate elements of $G$.\ \\end\{proof\}\ \ \\noindent\ Now, recall that $G$ is a normal subgroup of $\\Eact_\\phi G$.
