Abstract

Let XX and YY be compact connected complex manifolds of the same dimension with b2(X)=b2(Y)b_2(X)= b_2(Y). We prove that any surjective holomorphic map of degree one from XX to YY is a biholomorphism. A version of this was established by the first two authors, but under an extra assumption that dimH1(XOX)=dimH1(YOY)\dim H^1(X {\mathcal O}_X)\,=\,\dim H^1(Y {\mathcal O}_Y). We show that this condition is actually automatically satisfied.
