  2. Hyperbolic space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_space

    Most hyperbolic surfaces have a non-trivial fundamental group π 1 = Γ; the groups that arise this way are known as Fuchsian groups. The quotient space H 2 ‍ / ‍ Γ of the upper half-plane modulo the fundamental group is known as the Fuchsian model of the hyperbolic surface. The Poincaré half plane is also hyperbolic, but is simply ...

  3. Hyperbolic tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_tree

    A hyperbolic tree (often shortened as hypertree) is an information visualization and graph drawing method inspired by hyperbolic geometry.. A basic hyperbolic tree. Nodes in focus are placed in the center and given more room, while out-of-focus nodes are compressed near the boundaries.

  4. Hyperbolic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_geometry

    The Poincaré half-plane model takes one-half of the Euclidean plane, bounded by a line B of the plane, to be a model of the hyperbolic plane. The line B is not included in the model. The Euclidean plane may be taken to be a plane with the Cartesian coordinate system and the x-axis is taken as line B and the half plane is the upper half ( y > 0 ...

  5. Constructions in hyperbolic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructions_in...

    Hyperbolic geometry is a non-Euclidean geometry where the first four axioms of Euclidean geometry are kept but the fifth axiom, the parallel postulate, is changed.The fifth axiom of hyperbolic geometry says that given a line L and a point P not on that line, there are at least two lines passing through P that are parallel to L. [1]

  6. Poincaré metric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_metric

    It is the natural metric commonly used in a variety of calculations in hyperbolic geometry or Riemann surfaces. There are three equivalent representations commonly used in two-dimensional hyperbolic geometry. One is the Poincaré half-plane model, defining a model of hyperbolic space on the upper half-plane.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_uniform_tilings...

    In geometry, many uniform tilings on sphere, euclidean plane, and hyperbolic plane can be made by Wythoff construction within a fundamental triangle, (p q r), defined by internal angles as π/p, π/q, and π/r. Special cases are right triangles (p q 2).

  8. Infinite-order triangular tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite-order_triangular...

    The honeycomb has {3,∞} vertex figures.. In geometry, the infinite-order triangular tiling is a regular tiling of the hyperbolic plane with a Schläfli symbol of {3,∞}. All vertices are ideal, located at "infinity" and seen on the boundary of the Poincaré hyperbolic disk projection.

  9. Hyperbolic coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_coordinates

    Hyperbolic coordinates plotted on the Euclidean plane: all points on the same blue ray share the same coordinate value u, and all points on the same red hyperbola share the same coordinate value v. In mathematics, hyperbolic coordinates are a method of locating points in quadrant I of the Cartesian plane
