We show that there does not exist a Kobayashi hyperbolic complex manifold of dimension $n\ne 3$, whose group of holomorphic automorphisms has dimension $n^2+1$ and that, if a 3-dimensional connected hyperbolic complex manifold has automorphism group of dimension 10, then it is holomorphically equivalent to the Siegel space. These results complement earlier theorems of the authors on the possible dimensions of automorphism groups of domains in comlex space. The paper also contains a proof of our earlier result on characterizing $n$-dimensional hyperbolic complex manifolds with automorphism groups of dimension $\ge n^2+2$.
We determine all connected homogeneous Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 2$ whose holomorphic automorphism group has dimension $n^2-2$. This result complements an existing classification for automorphism group dimension $n^2-1$ and greater obtained without the homogeneity assumption.
We obtain a complete classification of complex Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 2$, for which the dimension of the group of holomorphic automorphisms is equal to $n^2$.
In this paper we determine all Kobayashi-hyperbolic 2-dimensional complex manifolds for which the group of holomorphic automorphisms has dimension 3. This work concludes a recent series of papers by the author on the classification of hyperbolic $n$-dimensional manifolds, with automorphism group of dimension at least $n^2-1$, where $n\ge 2$.
We determine all connected homogeneous Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 2$ whose holomorphic automorphism group has dimension $n^2-3$. This result complements existing classifications for automorphism group dimension $n^2-2$ (which is in some sense critical) and greater.
We determine all connected homogeneous Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 4$ whose group of holomorphic automorphisms has dimension either $n^2-4$, or $n^2-5$, or $n^2-6$. This paper continues a series of articles that achieve classifications for automorphism group dimension $n^2-3$ and greater.
We classify all homogeneous Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n \ge 2$ whose group of holomorphic automorphisms has dimension either $n^2 - 7$ or $n^2 - 8.$ This paper continues the work of A. Isaev, who classified all such manifolds with automorphism group dimension $n^2 - 6$ and greater.
We consider complex Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 2$ for which the dimension of the group of holomorphic automorphisms is equal to $n^2-1$. We give a complete classification of such manifolds for $n\ge 3$ and discuss several examples for $n=2$.
We study the possible dimensions that the groups of holomorphic automorphisms of hyperbolic Reinhardt domains can have. We are particularly interested in the problem of characterizing Reinhardt domains with automorphism group of prescribed dimension.
In this paper we determine the automorphism group of the Fock-Bargmann-Hartogs domain $D_{n,m}$ in $\mathbb{C}^n\times\mathbb{C}^m$ which is defined by the inequality ${\|ζ\|}^2<e^{-μ{\|z\|}^2}$.
Given any real-analytic CR manifold M, we provide general conditions on M guaranteeing that the group of all its global real-analytic CR automorphisms is a Lie group (in an appropriate topology). Our conditions are in particular satisfied when M is an arbitrary compact real-analytic hypersurface embedded in some Stein manifold.
We give an explicit description of hyperbolic Reinhardt domains D in C^2 such that: (i) D has C^k-smooth boundary for some k greater than or equal to 1, (ii) D intersects at least one of the coordinate complex lines $\{z_1=0\}$, $\{z_2=0\}$, and (iii) D has noncompact automorphism group. We also give an example that explains why such a setting is natural for the case of hyperbolic domains and an example that indicates that the situation in C^n for n greater than or equal to 3 is essentially more complicated than that in C^2.
In this paper we study the dynamics of regular polynomial automorphisms of C^n. These maps provide a natural generalization of complex Henon maps in C^2 to higher dimensions. For a given regular polynomial automorphism f we construct a filtration in C^n which has particular escape properties for the orbits of f. In the case when f is hyperbolic we obtain a complete description of its orbits. In the second part of the paper we study the Hausdorff and box dimension of the Julia sets of f. We show that the Julia set J has positive box dimension, and (provided f is not volume preserving) that the …
It is well-known that the automorphism group of a hyperbolic manifold is a Lie group.Conversely, it is interesting to see whether or not any Lie group could be prescribed asthe automorphism group of certain complex manifold. Whenthe Lie group $G$ is compact and connected, this problem has been completelysolved by Bedford-Dadok and independently by Saerens-Zame on 1987. Theyhave constructed \spc bounded domains $Ω$ such that $Aut(Ω)=G$. For Bedford-Dadok's $Ω, 0\le dim_{\Bbb C}Ω- dim_{\Bbb R}G\le 1$; for generic Saerens-Zame's$Ω,dim_{\Bbb C}Ω\gg dim_{\Bbb R}G$.J. Winkelmann has answered affirma…
We study the dynamics of a family of non cohomologically hyperbolic automorphisms $f$ of $\mathbb{C}^3$. We construct a compactification $X$ of $\mathbb{C}^3$ where their extensions are algebraically stable. We finally construct canonical invariant closed positive $(1,1)$-currents for $f^*$, $f_*$ and we study several of their properties. Moreover, we study the well defined current $T_f \wedge T_{f^{-1}}$ and the dynamics of $f$ on its support. Then we construct an invariant positive measure $T_f \wedge T_{f^{-1}}\wedge ϕ_{\infty}$, where $ϕ_{\infty}$ is a function defined on the support of $T…
A manifold M is locally conformally Kahler (LCK) if it admits a Kahler covering with monodromy acting by holomorphic homotheties. For a compact connected group G acting on an LCK manifold by holomorphic automorphisms, an averaging procedure gives a G-invariant LCK metric. Suppose that U(1) acts on an LCK manifold M by holomorphic isometries, and the lifting of this action to the Kahler cover of M is not isometric. We show that the cover admits an automorphic Kahler potential, and hence can be embedded to a Hopf manifold.
We show that the group of holomorphic automorphisms of a Stein manifold X of dimension greater than 1 is infinite-dimensional, provided X is a homogeneous space of a holomorphic action of a complex Lie group.
In this note, we give explicit examples of compact complex 3-folds which admit automorphisms that are isotopic to the identity through C $\infty$-diffeomorphisms but not through biholomorphisms. These automorphisms play an important role in the construction of the Te-ichm{ü}ller stack of higher dimensional manifolds.
If G_0 is a real form of a complex semisimple Lie group G and Z is compact G-homogeneous projective algebraic manifold, then G_0 has only finitely many orbits on Z. Complex analytic properties of open G_0-orbits D (flag domains) are studied. Schubert incidence-geometry is used to prove the Kobayashi hyperbolicity of certain cycle space components C_q(D). Using the hyperbolicity of C_q(D) and analyzing the action of Aut(D) on it, an exact description of Aut(D) is given. It is shown that, except in the easily understood case where D is holomorphically convex with a nontrivial Remmert reduction, …
In this paper, we deal with a strongly pseudoconvex almost CR manifold with a CR contraction. We will prove that the stable manifold of the CR contaction is CR equivalent to the Heisenberg group model.
We determine the Lie algebras of infinitesimal automorphisms for the models of the CR-manifolds belonging to general classes ${\sf II}$, ${\sf III_2}$ and ${\sf IV_2}$ through Cartan's equivalence method.
We study fixed point sets for holomorphic automorphisms (and endomorphisms) on complex manifolds. The main object of our interest is to determine the number and configuration of fixed points that forces an automorphism (endomorphism) to be the identity. These questions have been examined in a number of papers for a bounded domain in ${\Bbb C}^n$. Here we resolve the case for a general finite dimensional hyperbolic manifold. We also show that the results for non-hyperbolic manifolds are notably different.
It is shown that every hyperbolic rigid polynomial domain in C^3 of finite type, with abelian automorphism group is equivalent to a domain that is balanaced with respect to some weight.
We study holomorphic automorphisms on compact Kähler manifolds having simple actions on the Hodge cohomology ring. We show for such automorphisms that the main dynamical Green currents admit complex laminar structures (woven currents) and the Green measure is the unique invariant probability measure of maximal entropy.
Using McMullen's rational surface automorphisms, we construct projective rational manifolds of higher dimension admitting automorphisms of positive entropy with arbitrarily high number of Siegel disks and those with exactly one Siegel disk.
Let f be a holomorphic automorphism of positive entropy on a compact Kaehler surface. We show that the equilibrium measure of f is exponentially mixing. The proof uses some recent development on the pluripotential theory. The result also holds for automorphisms on compact Kaehler manifolds of higher dimension under a natural condition on their dynamical degrees.
The main result of this paper is that the identity component of the automorphism group of a compact, connected, strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold is compact unless the manifold is CR equivalent to the standard sphere. In dimensions greater than 3, it has been pointed out by D. Burns that this result follows from known results on biholomorphism groups of complex manifolds with boundary and the fact that any such CR manifold M can be realized as the boundary of an analytic variety. When M is 3-dimensional, Burns's proof breaks down because abstract CR 3-manifolds are generically not realizable a…
Let $f$ be a holomorphic automorphism of a compact Kähler manifold. Assume moreover that $f$ admits a unique maximal dynamic degree $d_p$ with only one eigenvalue of maximal modulus. Let $μ$ be its equilibrium measure. In this paper, we prove that $μ$ is exponentially mixing for all d.s.h.\ test functions.
In this paper we shall give sufficient conditions for local CR diffeomorphisms between two real analytic submanifolds of $\Bbb C^N$ to be determined by finitely many derivatives at finitely many points. These conditions will also be shown to be necessary in model cases. We shall also show that under the same conditions, the Lie algebra of the infinitesimal CR automorphisms at a point is finite dimensional.
In this note, we prove that every automorphism of a rational manifold which is obtained from $\Bbb{P}^k$ by a finite sequence blow-ups along smooth centers of dimension at most r with k>2r+2 has zero topological entropy.
We prove that the natural representaion, on the total Betti cohomolgy group, of the automorphism group of a hyperkähler manifold deformation equivalent to a generalized Kummer manifold is faithful. This is a sort of generalization of an earlier work of Beauville and a recent work of Boissére, Nieper-Wisskirchan and Sarti, concerning the representation on the second cohomology group.
In this paper, we first construct $k$-dimensional compact complex manifolds from automorphisms of $\mathbb{C}^k$ which admit a fixed attracting point at infinity. Then, we charactize the fundamental group as well as the universal covering of the attracting basin of this fixed point thanks to a generalization of the method described by T. Bousch in his thesis.
Let $X$ be a Stein manifold of dimension $n\geq 2$ satisfying the volume density property with respect to an exact holomorphic volume form. For example, $X$ could be $\mathbb{C}^n$, any connected linear algebraic group that is not reductive, the Koras-Russell cubic, or a product $Y\times\mathbb{C}$, where $Y$ is any Stein manifold with the volume density property. We prove that chaotic automorphisms are generic among volume-preserving holomorphic automorphisms of $X$. In particular, $X$ has a chaotic holomorphic automorphism. A proof for $X=\mathbb{C}^n$ may be found in work of Fornæss and Sib…
Motivated by the finiteness of the set of automorphisms Aut(X) of a projective manifold X, and by Kobayashi-Ochiai's conjecture that a projective manifold dim(X)-analytically hyperbolic (also known as strongly measure hyperbolic) should be of general type, we investigate the finiteness properties of Aut(X) for a complex manifold satisfying a (pseudo-) intermediate hyperbolicity property. We first show that a complex manifold X which is (dim(X) -- 1)-analytically hyperbolic has indeed finite automorphisms group. We then obtain a similar statement for a pseudo-(dim(X) -- 1)-analytically hyperbol…
We survey some properties of the automorphism groups of compact Kaehler manifolds. In particular, we present recent results by Keum, Oguiso and Zhang on the structure of these groups from the Tits alternative point of view. Several other related results will be also discussed. This paper is written for the VIASM Annual Meeting 2012.

We introduce a notion of super-potential (canonical function) associated to positive closed (p,p)-currents on compact Kaehler manifolds and we develop a calculus on such currents. One of the key points in our study is the use of deformations in the space of currents. As an application, we obtain several results on the dynamics of holomorphic automorphisms: regularity and uniqueness of the Green currents. We also get the regularity, the entropy, the ergodicity and the hyperbolicity of the equilibrium measures.
We consider the only one known class of non-Kähler irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds, described in the works of D. Guan and the first author. Any such manifold $Q$ of dimension $2n-2$ is obtained as a finite degree $n^2$ cover of some non-Kähler manifold $W_F$ which we call the base of $Q$. We show that the algebraic reduction of $Q$ and its base is the projective space of dimension $n-1$. Besides, we give a partial classification of submanifolds in $Q$, describe the degeneracy locus of its algebraic reduction, and prove that the automorphism group of $Q$ satisfies the Jordan proper…
