Kobayashi's classification conjecture for irreducible complex symmetric spaces
Kobayashi's classification conjecture for irreducible complex symmetric spaces
Let be an irreducible complex symmetric space, where is a complex semisimple Lie group and is the fixed-point subgroup of an involutive holomorphic automorphism, up to the usual finite-component qualification. Kobayashi's classification conjecture. The space admits a compact Clifford–Klein form if and only if it is locally isomorphic to either or a group manifold. The conjecture extends the known examples: Riemannian symmetric spaces and reductive group manifolds admit compact Clifford–Klein forms, while the complex-sphere case predicts the exceptional dimension .
