Review text

In a previous paper [Mich. Math. J. 56, No. 1, 173--181 (2008; Zbl 1171.32011)], the authors proved that, given an \(n\)-dimensional manifold \(M\), which is holomorphically separable and with smooth envelope of holomorphy (this occurs for instance when \(M\) is Stein and connected or is a domain in \(\mathbb C^n\)), if \(\Aut(M)\) is isomorphic (as topological group) to the automorphism group \(\Aut(\Delta^n)\) of the polydisc \(\Delta^n\), then \(M\) is biholomorphic to \(\Delta^n\). In this paper, they show that the same claim is true under the weaker hypothesis that \(\Aut(M)\) contains a topological subgroup isomorphic to the identity component of \(\Aut(\Delta^n)\). They also prove that, if \(M\) is a connected complex manifold of dimension \(n\) and \(\Aut(M)\) contains a subgroup \(G\), which is isomorphic (as topological group) to the identity component of \(\Aut(D)\) for some bounded symmetric domain \(D\) in \(\mathbb C^n\) and such that all isotropy subgroups are compact, then \(M\) is biholomorphic to the bounded symmetric domain \(D\). This generalizes a previous result of \textit{A. V. Isaev} [J. Geom. Anal. 18, No. 3, 795--799 (2008; Zbl 1146.32009)], originally proved for the case \(D = \Delta^n\).
