Universal Hyperbolic Geometry I: Trigonometry
Hyperbolic geometry is developed in a purely algebraic fashion from first principles, without a prior development of differential geometry. The natural connection with the geometry of Lorentz, Einstein and Minkowski comes from a projective point of view, with trigonometric laws that extend to ‘points at infinity’, here called ‘null points’, and beyond to ‘ideal points’ associated to a hyperbolo...
متن کاملThe Parabola in Universal Hyperbolic Geometry I
We introduce a novel definition of a parabola into the framework of universal hyperbolic geometry, show many analogs with the Euclidean theory, and also some remarkable new features. The main technique is to establish parabolic standard coordinates in which the parabola has the form xz = y2. Highlights include the discovery of the twin parabola and the connection with sydpoints, many unexpected...
متن کاملHyperbolic Trigonometry and its Application in the Poincaré Ball Model of Hyperbolic Geometry
Hyperbolic trigonometry is developed and illustrated in this article along lines parallel to Euclidean trigonometry by exposing the hyperbolic trigonometric law of cosines and of sines in the Poincaré ball model of n-dimensional hyperbolic geometry, as well as their application. The Poincaré ball model of 3-dimensional hyperbolic geometry is becoming increasingly important in the construction o...
متن کاملEuclidean, Spherical and Hyperbolic Trigonometry
This is a collection of some standard formulae from Euclidean, spherical and hyperbolic trigonometry, including some standard models of the hyperbolic plane. Proofs are not given.
متن کاملUniversal Hyperbolic Geometry II : A pictorial overview
This article provides a simple pictorial introduction to universal hyperbolic geometry. We explain how to understand the subject using only elementary projective geometry, augmented by a distinguished circle. This provides a completely algebraic framework for hyperbolic geometry, valid over the rational numbers (and indeed any field not of characteristic two), and gives us many new and beautifu...
