      Realizing automorphism groups of metabelian groups (English)
      0 references
      The authors show that any group \(M\) of cardinality \(\kappa\), where \(\aleph_0\leq\kappa<2^{\aleph_0}\), is isomorphic to the group of outer automorphisms of a torsion-free metabelian group \(G\), with trivial centre, of cardinality at most \(\kappa\), i.e., given \(M\) there exists \(G\) such that \(\text{Out }G\cong M\), where \(\text{Out }G\cong\Aut G/\text{Inn }G\). For the proof the authors use a well known embedding of Magnus of the free metabelian group into a group of \(2\times 2\) matrices. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0921.00018].
