We will work in one of the categories DifT, r= 0, 1,..., oo, where Diff0= Top by definition. Let P be the interior of a compact manifold P. We denote by A (P) the group of all automorphisms (ie diffeomorphisms or homeomorphisms, as the case may be) of P with the compact-open C-topology, and by A0 (P), or simply AOi the identity component of A (P). IfSP= 0 it is known, except possibly if r= 1+ dim P, that A0 (P) is a simple group.(See [1],[7],[8],[9],[14],[19].) On the other hand, ifdP# 0, AQ {P) contains non-trivial normal subgroups, for instance the subgroup consisting of all automorphisms in A0 (P) with compact support. We will, however, show that A0 (P) is perfect and that its normal subgroups can be effectively classified. They depend essentially only on the boundary of P. To be more precise, let us suppose from now on that the boundary d of P is non-empty and that its connected components are du..., dk. Let K be the set {1,..., k}. If J£ K, we write dj for M dh and A (P, rel dj) ieJ for the subgroup {me A (P): m= id near dj}. Finally, for each ie K let Gt.= A (P, reld;) n Ao, and, if J£ K, put
