The Siegel upper half-space of degree $g$ is denoted by $\mathcal{H}_g$ and defined as
\[
\mathcal{H}_g=
\left\{
\tau \in \text{Mat}(g\times g): \tau=\tau^t, \, \text{Im}(\tau)>0
\right\}.
\]
It is the set of $g\times g$ complex symmetric matrices which have positive definite imaginary part. It is acted on by the real symplectic group via
\[
\left(
\begin{matrix}
\Sp(2g,\R)\times \mathcal{H}_g
& \to
& \mathcal{H}_g\\
(M=\left(\begin{matrix}a & b\\ c & d\end{matrix}\right), \tau)
&\mapsto
& (a\tau+b)(c\tau+d)^{-1}
\end{matrix}
\right).\]
The action of any discrete subgroup of $\Sp(2g,\R)$ on $\mathcal{H}_g$
is properly discontinuous. Note that the integral symplectic group $\Gamma_g$
does not act freely on $\mathcal{H}_g$.
