Abstract

Given a real-analytic Riemannian manifold X there is a canonical complex structure, which is compatible with the canonical complex structure on T*X and makes the leaves of the Riemannian foliation on TX into holomorphic curves, on its tangent bundle. A Grauert tube over X of radius r, denoted as TrX, is the collection of tangent vectors of X of length less than r equipped with this canonical complex structure.

In this article, we prove the following two rigidity properties of Grauert tubes. First, for any real-analytic Riemannian manifold such that rmax > 0, we show that the identity component of the automorphism group of TrX is isomorphic to the identity component of the isometry group of X provided that r < rmax. Secondly, let X be a homogeneous Riemannian manifold and let the radius r < rmax, then the automorphism group of TrX is isomorphic to the isometry group of X and there is a unique Grauert tube representation for such a complex manifold TrX.
