Sur un théorème de Castelnuovo

We continue the study of G. Castelnuovo on the group of birational transformations of the complex plane that fix each point of a curve of genus > 1 ; we use adjoint linear system of the curve as Castelnuovo does. We prove that these groups are abelian, and that these are either finite, of order 2 or 3, or conjuguate to a subgroup of the de Jonquières group. We show also that these results do not generalise to curves of genus ≤ 1. *Partiellement soutenu par le CNPq-Brasil et la Section de Mathématiques de l'Université de Genève.
