Structure and Automorphisms of Some Cyclic Extensions of Free Groups
摘要
We consider torus knot groups that are defined by two generators and a relation between them.Given a pair of coprime integers, we show how to represent such a group as a cyclic extension of a free group.This is achieved by finding a generating set for the free group and finding the required automorphism.The result obtained makes it possible to study automorphisms of such cyclic extensions by studying automorphisms of torus knot groups.
