Abstract: In this paper we prove a general theorem showing the extension property for partial automorphisms (EPPA, also called the Hrushovski property) for classes of structures containing relations and unary functions, optionally equipped with a permutation group of the language. The proof is elementary, combinatorial and fully self-contained. Our result is a common strengthening of the Herwig-Lascar theorem on EPPA for relational classes with forbidden homomorphisms, the Hodkinson-Otto theorem on EPPA for relational free amalgamation classes, its strengthening for unary functions by Evans, Hubiv{c}ka and Nev{s}etv{r}il and their coherent variants by Siniora and Solecki. We also prove an EPPA analogue of the main results of J. Hubiv{c}ka and J. Nev{s}etv{r}il: All those Ramsey classes (Ramsey classes with closures and forbidden homomorphisms), thereby establishing a common framework for proving EPPA and the Ramsey property. Our results have numerous applications, we include a solution of a problem related to a class constructed by the Hrushovski predimension construction.
