Given any homogeneous complex manifold X = G/H, there exists a natural coset map π :G/HG/K satisfying π (X1) = π (x2) if and only if dx(x1 x2) = 0, where dx denotes the Kobayashi pseudometric on X. Its typical fiber Z : = K/H is a connected complex submanifold of X. Also G/K has a (7-invariant complex structure, provided K satisfies a certain technical assumption (see Theorem 3). If Z is compact as well, then G/K is biholomorphic to a homogeneous bounded domain.
