Constraints on automorphism groups of higher dimensional manifolds
  In this note, we prove, for instance, that the automorphism group of a rational manifold X which is obtained from CP^k by a finite sequence of blow-ups along smooth centers of dimension at most r with k>2r+2 has finite image in GL(H^*(X,Z)). In particular, every holomorphic automorphism $f:X\to X$ has zero topological entropy.
