A remark on a theorem by Kodama and Shimizu

Abstract: We prove a characterization theorem for the unit polydisc

D e l t a^{n} s u b s e t C C^{n}

in the spirit of a recent result due to Kodama and Shimizu. We show that if

M

is a connected

n

-dimensional complex manifold such that (i) the group

h b o x A u t (M)

of holomorphic automorphisms of

M

acts on

M

with compact isotropy subgroups, and (ii)

h b o x A u t (M)

and

h b o x A u t (D e l t a^{n})

are isomorphic as topological groups equipped with the compact-open topology, then

M

is holomorphically equivalent to

D e l t a^{n}

.
