Abstract: Let X be a Stein manifold of dimension ngeq2 satisfying the volume density property with respect to an exact holomorphic volume form. For example, X could be mathbbCn, any connected linear algebraic group that is not reductive, the Koras-Russell cubic, or a product YimesmathbbC, 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=mathbbCn may be found in work of Fornae ss and Sibony. We follow their approach closely. Peters, Vivas, and Wold showed that a generic volume-preserving automorphism of mathbbCn, ngeq2, has a hyperbolic fixed point whose stable manifold is dense in mathbbCn. This property can be interpreted as a kind of chaos. We generalise their theorem to a Stein manifold as above.
