Commensurations of the outer automorphism group of a universal Coxeter group (Q6062651)

Summary: This paper studies the rigidity properties of the abstract commensurator of the outer automorphism group of a universal Coxeter group of rank \(n\), which is the free product \(W_n\) of \(n\) copies of \(\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\). We prove that for \(n\geq 5\) the natural map \(\mathrm{Out}(W_n) \to \mathrm{Comm}(\mathrm{Out}(W_n))\) is an isomorphism and that every isomorphism between finite index subgroups of \(\mathrm{Out}(W_n)\) is given by a conjugation by an element of \(\mathrm{Out}(W_n)\).
