  2. Unit hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_hyperbola

    The unit hyperbola is blue, its conjugate is green, and the asymptotes are red. In geometry, the unit hyperbola is the set of points (x,y) in the Cartesian plane that satisfy the implicit equation = In the study of indefinite orthogonal groups, the unit hyperbola forms the basis for an alternative radial length

  3. Hyperbolic partial differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_partial...

    The solutions of hyperbolic equations are "wave-like". If a disturbance is made in the initial data of a hyperbolic differential equation, then not every point of space feels the disturbance at once. Relative to a fixed time coordinate, disturbances have a finite propagation speed. They travel along the characteristics of the equation.

  4. 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

  5. Split-complex number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-complex_number

    The contracted unit hyperbola {⁡ + ⁡:} of the split-complex plane has only half the area in the span of a corresponding hyperbolic sector. Such confusion may be perpetuated when the geometry of the split-complex plane is not distinguished from that of ⁠ R ⊕ R {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} \oplus \mathbb {R} } ⁠ .

  6. Hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbola

    This equation is called the canonical form of a hyperbola, because any hyperbola, regardless of its orientation relative to the Cartesian axes and regardless of the location of its center, can be transformed to this form by a change of variables, giving a hyperbola that is congruent to the original (see below).

  7. Hyperbolic angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_angle

    The curve represents xy = 1. A hyperbolic angle has magnitude equal to the area of the corresponding hyperbolic sector, which is in standard position if a = 1. In geometry, hyperbolic angle is a real number determined by the area of the corresponding hyperbolic sector of xy = 1 in Quadrant I of the Cartesian plane.

  8. Hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_functions

    A ray through the unit hyperbola x 2 − y 2 = 1 at the point (cosh a, sinh a), where a is twice the area between the ray, the hyperbola, and the x-axis. For points on the hyperbola below the x-axis, the area is considered negative (see animated version with comparison with the trigonometric (circular) functions).

  9. Dirichlet problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet_problem

    is the derivative of the Green's function along the inward-pointing unit normal vector ^. The integration is performed on the boundary, with measure d s {\displaystyle ds} . The function ν ( s ) {\displaystyle \nu (s)} is given by the unique solution to the Fredholm integral equation of the second kind,
