Finite Subgroups of Birational Automorphism Groups of Severi--Brauer Surfaces
Abstract
We prove that a finite group acting birationally on a non-trivial Severi--Brauer surface S over a field π of positive characteristic not equal to $3$ is isomorphic either to a subgroup of group of biregular automorphisms of Sπper or to a subgroup of ΞΌ33, where ΞΌ3 is a cyclic group of order $3$ and πper is the perfect closure of a field π. Combined with results about classification of finite subgroups of the group of biregular automorphisms of S, this gives a classification of finite subgroups of the group of birational automorphisms of S.
