contents If $X$ is a quasi-projective variety over a field $k$ and $ϕ$ a birational endomorphism of $X$ that is injective outside a closed subset of codimension $\geq 2$, we prove that $ϕ$ is an automorphism. This generalizes an old theorem of Ax and proves a conjecture of Miyanishi. A key step in our proof is a finiteness result on class groups, which is of interest in its own right.
