Proof of the Yano-Obata Conjecture for holomorph-projective transformations

Abstract

We prove the classical Yano-Obata conjecture by showing that the connected component of the group of holomorph-projective transformations of a closed, connected Riemannian K\"ahler manifold consists of isometries unless the metric has constant positive holomorphic curvature.

28 pages, 3 pictures. The (v2) version contains in addition a relation between h-projectively equivalent metrics and hamiltonian 2-forms studies in math.DG/0202280, math.DG/0401320, math.DG/0511118, math.DG/0511119. In the (v3) version, we also added an appendix with the h-projectively invariant formulation of the main equations and, as their application, an alternative proof of Lemma 7
