Abstract

We classify the pairs (X,π)(X,\pi), where π ⁣:XS\pi\colon X\to S is a P1\mathbb{P}^1-bundle over a non-rational geometrically ruled surface SS and Aut(X)\mathrm{Aut}^\circ(X) is relatively maximal, i.e., maximal with respect to the inclusion in the group Bir(X/S)\mathrm{Bir}(X/S). The results hold over any algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.
