For a 1-connected space $X$ with the homotopy type of a finite CW-complex, the homotopy automorphisms $\pi_0\,\mathrm{hAut}(X)$ are known to have the structure of an arithmetic group up to finite kernel. In fact, there are at least two such constructions in the literature: - Sullivan's in Theorem 10.3 of [Infinitesimal computations in topology][1]. - Wilkerson's in Theorem B of [Applications of minimal simplicial groups][2]. In both cases the arithmetic group structure is obtained from the inclusion (up to finite kernel) of $\pi_0\,\mathrm{hAut}(X)$ into the homotopy automorphisms $\pi_0\,\mathrm{hAut}(X_\mathbb{Q})$ of the rationalisation $X_\mathbb{Q}$. Both references construct an $\mathbb{Q}$-algebraic group structure on $\pi_0\,\mathrm{hAut}(X_\mathbb{Q})$, but since their constructions proceed along different lines it is not clear these coincide. > Are Sullivan's and Wilkerson's algebraic group structures on $\pi_0\,\mathrm{hAut}(X_\mathbb{Q})$ the same?
