Let X be a complex projective variety. Suppose that the group of birational automorphisms of X contains finite subgroups isomorphic to (ℤ/Nℤ)r for r fixed and N arbitrarily large. We show that r does not exceed 2dim(X). Moreover, the equality holds if and only if X is birational to an abelian variety. We also show that an analogous result holds for groups of bimeromorphic automorphisms of compact Kähler spaces, under some additional assumptions.
