Automorphisms of the endomorphism semigroup of a polynomial algebra. (Q651227)

The authors describe the automorphism group of the endomorphism semigroup \(\text{End\,}K[x_1,\dots,x_n]\) of the ring \(K[x_i]\) of polynomials over an arbitrary field \(K\). A similar result is obtained for the automorphism groups of finitely generated free commutative algebras of the variety \(CA\) of commutative algebras. This extends the result obtained by A. Berzins for an infinite field \(K\). One of the main results of the paper is in Section 3: Automorphisms of the semigroup \(\text{End\,}A\).
