is it possible to, for example, auto adjust the white balance on many images at once?

thanks.

Select them all. Then in Grid view (on the primary monitor), press Shift-Control-U.

Several ways to do this:

1.) In develop module, adjust one "referencephoto", select the rest rest of them (making sure that the "referencephoto" is most selected), and press syncronize at the lower right corner. This will give all photos the same settings.

2.) In grid view, select the photos. Adjust parameters in quick develop. You can also apply Auto correction at this point (ctrl+u).

3.) In develop module. Once you have adjusted one photo, jump to the next and press ctrl+alt+v to apply the same settings as the previous picture.

Work in Auto Sync mode in Develop - your adjustments will apply to all the images you have selected in the filmstrip. Switch to it by using Cmd (Mac) or Ctrl (PC) to click the Sync button.

Wow, that's a new one for me, thank you johnbeardy!

It's the fastest way to work in LR. You just need to keep your head screwed on and make sure you know which images you have selected, but if you do apply the same dust spot correction to 1'''' images, there's always Undo.
