Classical Kleinian groups are discrete subgroups of PSL(2,C): these have a natural action on the complex projective line, with a very rich geometry and dynamics. In this talk, we shall speak about the analogous situation in higher dimensional, that is, discrete subgroups of PU(n,1), the group of holomorphic automorphisms of complex hyperbolic n-space.
