AbstractA complex hyperbolic triangle group is a group generated by three involutions fixing complex lines in complex hyperbolic space. Our purpose in this paper is to improve a previous result and to discuss discreteness of complex hyperbolic triangle groups of type (n, n, ∞; k).

Shimizu’s lemma gives a necessary condition for a discrete group of isometries of the hyperbolic plane containing a parabolic map to be discrete. Viewing the hyperbolic plane as complex hyperbolic 1-space we generalise Shimizu’s lemma to higher dimensional complex hyperbolic space In particular we give a version of Shimizu’s lemma for subgroups of PU (n, 1) containing a vertical translation Partial generalisation to groups containing either an ellipto-parabolic map or non-vertical translations are also given together with examples that show full generalisation is not possible in these cases

Abstract We characterize the boundary at infinity of a complex hyperbolic space as a compact Ptolemy space that satisfies four incidence axioms.
