In the reviewed paper the author proves two results. The first is that if an infinitesimal pseudo-conformal transformation on the circle bundle of the Webster construction is projectable [\textit{S. Webster}, Math. Z. 157, 265-270 (1977; Zbl 0363.53012); J. Differ. Geom. 13, 25-41 (1978; Zbl 0394.53023); \textit{S. S. Chern} and \textit{J. K. Moser}, Acta Math. 133, 219- 271 (1974; Zbl 0302.32015)], the projected vector field is an infinitesimal isometry of the Kähler metric. The second theorem is that if a holomorphic transformation of a Kähler manifold preserves the Bochner tensor, its covariant derivatives and a certain tensor D, then it is a homothety. The author conjectures that there are no holomorphic transformations preserving the Bochner tensor other than homotheties and the second theorem is a result in this direction.
