Abstract: We construct a smooth complex projective rational surface whose automorphism group is discrete and not finitely generated. It is obtained by blowing up a point on a branch curve of a rational quotient of a product Kummer surface. Every point with transcendental coordinate gives such a surface. The proof uses leading jets along the branch curve, the complete family of blowups and the cubic intersection of the family, which are not being considered in relevant earlier works.
