Short Presentations for Aut$_n^+$ and Out$_n^+$

Abstract

This paper uses the methods from arXiv:0804.1396 to give 'short' presentations for Aut$^+(F_n)$, the special automorphism group of the free group of rank $n$, and Out $^+(F_n)$ the special outer automorphism group of the free group of rank $n$.
