Abstract

Let G be a group, Aut(G) and L(G) denote the full automorphisms group and absolute centre of G, respectively. The automorphism \({\alpha\in Aut(G)}\) is called autocentral if \({g^{-1}\alpha(g)\in L(G)}\), for all \({g\in G}\). In the present paper, we investigate the properties of such automorphisms.
