### A group-theoretic characterization of the direct product of a ball and punctured planes

#### Abstract

Employing the same technique as in our previous papers, we establish an intrinsic characterization of the direct product of a complex Euclidean ball and punctured planes in the category of Stein manifolds from the viewpoint of holomorphic automorphism group.
