Názov: Graph embeddings, group factorizations, and skew morphisms
Termín: 27.4.2023, 9:50 hod., M 213
Abstrakt:
A skew morphism of a finite group $A$ is a permutation $\varphi$ on $A$ fixing the identity element, and for which there exists an integer-valued function $\pi$ on $A$ such that $\varphi(xy)=\varphi(x)\varphi^{\pi(x)}(y)$ for all $x,y\in A$. If $\pi$ is constant on the orbits of $\varphi$, the skew morphism $\varphi$ is called smooth. The theory of skew morphisms is a crucial algebraic tool to investigate symmetric embeddings of graphs into orientable surfaces. In this talk, we will present the most recent progress in the classification problem of skew morphisms of cyclic groups, and show that a cyclic group of order $n$ underlies only smooth skew morphisms if and only if $n=2^en_1$, where $0\leq e\leq 4$ and $n_1$ is a square-free odd number.
