Abstract

An automorphism F of the polynomial ring in n variables over a field of characteristic zero is said to be \it co-tame if the subgroup of the automorphism group of the polynomial ring generated by F and affine automorphisms contains the tame subgroup. There exist many examples of such an F, and several sufficient conditions for co-tameness are already known. In 2015, Edo-Lewis gave the first example of a non-cotame automorphism, which is a tame automorphism of the polynomial ring in three variables. In this paper, we give the first example of a non-cotame automorphism which is not tame. We construct such an example when n=3 as the exponential automorphism of a locally nilpotent derivation of rank three.
