We survey results, obtained in the past three years, on characterizing bounded (and Kobayashi-hyperbolic) Reinhardt domains by their automorphism groups. Specifically, we consider the following two situations: (i) the group is non-compact, and (ii) the dimension of the group is sufficiently large. In addition, we prove two theorems on characterizing general hyperbolic complex manifolds by the dimensions of their automorphism groups.

We discuss completeness with respect to the Caratheodory distance, the Kobayashi distance and the Beraman distance, respectively.

In this paper, we show that Greene-Krantz's conjecture is true for certain class of domains. In fact, we give a complete classification of automorphism groups of domains of the form (Fig.) where the function .phi. is a real valued $C^{\infty}$ function in a neighborhood of [0,1] which satisfies the following conditions; (1) .phi.(0)=.phi.'(0)=0 and .phi.(1)=1, (2) .phi.(t) is increasing and convex for t>0.vex for t>0.

Let $\Sigma_{$\mid$\alpha$\mid$=m}\;s_{\alpha}z^{\alpha},\;z\;{\in}\;{\mathbb{C}}^n$ be a unimodular m-homogeneous polynomial in n variables (i.e. $$\mid$s_{\alpha}$\mid$\;=\;1$ for all multi indices $\alpha$), and let $R\;{\subset}\;{\mathbb{C}}^n$ be a (bounded complete) Reinhardt domain. We give lower bounds for the maximum modules $sup_{z\;{\in}\;R\;$\mid$\Sigma_{$\mid$\alpha$\mid$=m}\;s_{\alpha}z^{\alpha}$\mid$$, and upper estimates for the average of these maximum moduli taken over all possible m-homogeneous Bernoulli polynomials (i.e. $s_{\alpha}\;=\;{\pm}1$ for all multi indices $\alpha$). Examples show that for a fixed degree m our estimates, for rather large classes of domains R, are asymptotically optimal in the dimension n.
