Abstract: Let $H^n$ be the hyperbolic n-space with $ngeq2$. Suppose that $Gamma<Isom{H}^n$ is a discrete, torsion free subgroup and $a$ is a point in the domain of discontinuity $Omega(Gamma)$. Let $p$ be the projection map from $H^n$ to the quotient manifold $M=H^n/Gamma$. In this paper we prove that there exists an open neighborhood $U$ of $a$ in $H^{n}cupOmega(Gamma)$ such that $p$ is an isometry on $Ucap{H}^n$.

Review text

Let \(H^n\) be the hyperbolic \(n-\)space with \(n\geq 2\), \(\Gamma\) be a discrete, torsion free subgroup of isometries of \(H^n\), and let \(p\) denote the projection map from \(H^n\) to the quotient manifold \(M=H^n/ \Gamma\) and \(\Omega(\Gamma)\) be the domain of discontinuity of \(\Gamma\). The aim of this paper is to prove the existence of an open neighborhood \(U\) of \(a\) in \(\Omega(\Gamma)\cup H^n\) for any \(a\in \Omega(\Gamma)\) such that \(p\) is an isometry on \(U\cap H^n\).
