Abstract

Let X be a minimal projective threefold of general type over ℂ with only Gorenstein quotient singularities, and let Aut(X) be the subgroup of automorphisms acting trivially on H^*(X,ℚ). In this paper, we show that if X is of maximal Albanese dimension, then |Aut(X)|≤ 6. Moreover, if X is nonsingular and KX is ample, then |Aut(X)|≤ 5. Seeking for higher-dimensional examples of varieties with nontrivial Aut(X), we concern d-folds X isogenous to an unmixed product of curves. If d=3, we show that Aut(X) is a 2-elementray abelian group whose order is at most 4 under some conditions on their minimal realizations. Moreover, each of the possible groups can be realized. If d≥ 3, we give a sufficient condition for Aut(X) being trivial. Curiously, there exist examples of projective threefolds X with terminal singularities and maximal Albanese dimension whose Aut(X) can have an arbitrarily large order.
