Proof that every automorphism is inner
The automorphism group of a cyclic group of order is a group of order . Thus, the holomorph is obtained as the semidirect product with a group of coprime order .Further, since this group is the whole automorphism group, it is tautologically a self-normalizing subgroup of the automorphism group. Thus, fact (1) tells us that every automorphism of the holomorph is inner.
