Abstract: In this article, we prove several results about the extension to the boundary of conformal immersions from an open subset $Omega$ of a Riemannian manifold $L$, into another Riemannian manifold $N$ of the same dimension. In dimension $ngeq3$, and when the $(n-1)$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of $partialOmega$ is zero, we completely classify the cases when $partialOmega$ contains essential singular points, showing that $L$ and $N$ are conformally flat and making the link with the theory of Kleinian groups.

Review text

This work classifies essential singularities of conformal immersions between two Riemannian manifolds of the same dimension \(n \geq 3\) in case the \((n-1)\)-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the singular set is zero. Locally such singularities are shown to occur only in conformally flat spaces and are connected with the theory of Kleinian groups. The proofs rely upon the canonical Cartan connection associated to a conformal structure.
