Abstract: We prove that if a holomorphic diffeomorphism of a compact complex manifold is bi-Lipschitz conjugate to an ergodic affine automorphism $A$ on $Γ\backslash G$, then the conjugacy is $C^\infty$. Moreover, if $A$ is weakly mixing, then the induced complex structure on $Γ\backslash G$ is left-invariant. As applications, we establish a regularity bootstrap result for holomorphic Anosov diffeomorphisms bi-Lipschitz conjugate to affine models, as well as a holomorphic analogue of the rigidity theorem for higher-rank abelian Anosov actions by Hertz--Wang. The key observation is that the condition for a diffeomorphism to preserve a complex structure has the same form as the cocycle compatibility relation appearing in the study of centralizers. This places invariant complex structures and centralizers within a common $\mathbb Z^2$-cocycle framework. From this viewpoint, our main result may be regarded as a holomorphic counterpart of the Lipschitz centralizer rigidity theorem of Damjanović--Wilkinson--Wu--Xu for affine automorphisms.
