The notion of “Siegel domains” was introduced by [8]. It was then shown that every homogeneous bounded domain is holomorphically equivalent to a Siegel domain (of the second kind) determined uniquely up to an affine isomorphism ([15], cf. also [2], [4], [9b]). In a recent note [10b], I have shown that among (homogeneous) Siegel domains the symmetric domains can be characterized by three conditions (i), (ii), (iii) on the data (U, V, Ω, F) defining the Siegel domain (see Theorem in § 2 of this paper). The class of homogeneous Siegel domains satisfying partial conditions (i), (ii), which we propose to call “quasi-symmetric”, seems to be of some interest, since for instance the fibers appearing in the expressions of symmetric domains as Siegel domains of the third kind fall in this class ([10b], [16]).
