Abstract

Let \Omega(1) and \Omega(2) be strongly pseudoconvex domains in C-n and f : \Omega(1) --> \Omega(2) an isometry for the Kobayashi or Caratheodory metrics. Suppose that f extends as a C-1 map to (\Omega) over bar (1). We then prove that f\textbackslash{}partial derivative \Omega(1) : partial derivative \Omega(1) --> partial derivative \Omega(2) is a CR or anti-CR diffeomorphism. It follows that \Omega(1) and \Omega(2) must be biholomorphic or anti-biholomorphic.
