The half-automorphism group of code loops
Abstract
For any code loop L, we prove that the half-automorphism group of L is the product of the automorphism group of L by an elementary abelian 2-group consisting of all half-automorphisms that act as the identity on a fixed basis. Also, we prove that elementary mappings only can be a half-automorphism on code loops of rank at most 3.
