Abstract

Let HnH^n be the hyperbolic n-space with n2n\geq 2. Suppose that Γ<IsomHn\Gamma<Isom H^n is a discrete, torsion free subgroup and aa is a point in the domain of discontinuity Ω(Γ)\Omega(\Gamma). Let pp be the projection map from HnH^n to the quotient manifold M=Hn/ΓM=H^n/\Gamma. In this paper we prove that there exists an open neighborhood UU of aa in HnΩ(Γ)H^n\cup\Omega(\Gamma) such that pp is an isometry on UHnU\cap H^n.
