Abstract

Locally symmetric spaces play an important part in differential geometryand arise from many different areas such as topology, number theory, representa-tion theory, algebraic geometry,...The typical important class consists of quotientsof symmetric spaces by arithmetic groups, for example, the moduli space of ellipticcurves is the quotient of the upper half plane H2 by SL(2; Z).In this paper, firstly, we study the symmetric structure of the upper half space H3and the relation with the symmetric space SL(2;C)=SU(2): Then we study the locallysymmetric space SL(2;Z + iZ)nH3 = SL(2;Z + iZ)nSL(2;C)=SU(2) based on theaction of the discrete group SL(2; Z + iZ) on H3:
