This monograph lays down the foundations of the theory of complex Kleinian groups, a newly born area of mathematics whose origin traces back to the work of Riemann, Poincaré, Picard and many others. Kleinian groups are, classically, discrete groups of conformal automorphisms of the Riemann sphere, and these can be regarded too as being groups of holomorphic automorphisms of the complex projective line CP1. When going into higher dimensions, there is a dichotomy: Should we look at conformal automorphisms of the n-sphere?, or should we look at holomorphic automorphisms of higher dimensional complex projective spaces? These two theories are different ... Read more

Reviews for Complex Kleinian Groups
From the reviews: “The book is written in a clear, accessible manner and selected chapters could easily serve as a text for a graduate course on this topic. It also brings together many results published by the authors, their collaborators and others on this topic, as well as giving open questions and directions for future research.” (John R. Parker, ...
