Diffeomorphisms between Siegel domains of the first kind preserving the holomorphic automorphism groups and applications

Abstract

This is a continuation of our previous paper [4]. In the class of hyperbolic manifolds in the sense of S. Kobayashi [3], we obtained in [4] an intrinsic characterization of bounded symmetric domains in Cⁿ from the viewpoint of the holomorphic automorphism group. In connection with this, we give in this paper a structure theorem on diffeomorphisms between Siegel domains of the first kind that preserve the holomorphic automorphism groups. As an application, we obtain a well-known fact [2] that two Siegel domains of the first kind are biholomorphically equivalent if and only if they are linearly equivalent.
