Abstract
In this paper, we describe various definitions of geometrical finiteness for discrete hyperbolic groups in any dimension, and prove their equivalence. This generalises what has been worked out in two and three dimensions by Marden. Beardon, Maskit, Thurston and others. We also discuss the nature of convex fundamental domains for such groups. We begin the paper with a discussion of results related to the Margulls Lemma and Bieberbach Theorems.
