Nous étudions un certain sous-groupe multiplicatif de type fini du corps de classes d’un corps quartique de type CM. Il est constitué de valeurs spéciales de certaines fonctions thêta de genre deux, et il est l’analogue du groupe des unités de Siegel. Les questions d’intégralité de ces valeurs spéciales sont reliées à l’arithmétique de l’espace des modules de Siegel de genre deux.

We study a certain finitely generated multiplicative subgroup of the Hilbert class field of a quartic CM field. It consists of special values of certain theta functions of genus 2 and is analogous to the group of Siegel units. Questions of integrality of these specials values are related to the arithmetic of the Siegel moduli space.
