Splitting automorphisms of prime power orders of free Burnside groups
  We prove that if the order of a splitting automorphism of free Burnside group~$B(m,n)$ of odd period~$n\ge1003$ is a prime power, then the automorphism is inner. Thus, we give an affirmative answer to the question on the coincidence of splitting and inner automorphisms of free Burnside groups $B(m,n)$ for automorphisms of orders~$p^k$ ($p$ is a prime number). This question was posed in the Kourovka Notebook in 1990 (see 11th ed., Question 11.36.~b).
