For any finite group G, we construct a finite poset (or equivalently, a finite T0-space) X, whose group of automorphisms is isomorphic to G. If the order of the group is n and it has r generators, X has n (r + 2) points. This construction improves previous results by G. Birkhoff and M.C. Thornton. The relationship between automorphisms and homotopy types is also analyzed. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
