Abstract
For F F a free group of finite rank, it is shown that the fixed subgroup of any set B B of endomorphisms of F F has rank ≤ rank ( F ) \leq \operatorname {rank} (F) , generalizing a recent result of Dicks and Ventura. The proof involves the combinatorics of derivations of groups. Some related questions are examined.
