We investigate the action of the automorphism group of a closed Riemann surface of genus at least two on its set of theta characteristics (or spin structures). We give a characterization of those surfaces admitting a non-trivial automorphism fixing either all of the spin structures or just one. The case of hyperelliptic curves and of the Klein quartic are discussed in detail.

Dans ce travail, nous étudions l’action du groupe d’automorphismes conformes d’une surface de Riemann de genre supérieur à deux sur ses structures spin. Nous caractérisons de telles surfaces qui admettent un automorphisme non-trivial fixant soit toutes les structures spin à la fois, soit seulement une. Les cas des courbes hyperelliptiques et de la quartique de Klein sont analysés en détail.
