LetG⊂SU(2, 1) be a non-elementary complex hyperbolic Kleinian group. IfGpreserves a complex line, thenGis ℂ-Fuchsian; ifGpreserves a Lagrangian plane, thenGis ℝ-Fuchsian;Gis Fuchsian ifGis either ℂ-Fuchsian or ℝ-Fuchsian. In this paper, we prove that if the traces of all elements inGare real, thenGis Fuchsian. This is an analogous result of Theorem V.G. 18 of B. Maskit, Kleinian Groups, Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 1988, in the setting of complex hyperbolic isometric groups. As an application of our main result, we show thatGis conjugate to a subgroup ofS(U(1)×U(1, 1)) orSO(2, 1) if each loxodromic element inGis hyperbolic. Moreover, we show that the converse of our main result does not hold by giving a ℂ-Fuchsian group.
