  2. Poincaré disk model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_disk_model

    Poincaré disk with hyperbolic parallel lines Poincaré disk model of the truncated triheptagonal tiling.. In geometry, the Poincaré disk model, also called the conformal disk model, is a model of 2-dimensional hyperbolic geometry in which all points are inside the unit disk, and straight lines are either circular arcs contained within the disk that are orthogonal to the unit circle or ...

  3. Hypercycle (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercycle_(geometry)

    A Poincaré disk showing the hypercycle HC that is determined by the straight line L (termed straight because it cuts the horizon at right angles) and point P. In hyperbolic geometry, a hypercycle, hypercircle or equidistant curve is a curve whose points have the same orthogonal distance from a given straight line (its axis).

  4. Smallest-circle problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smallest-circle_problem

    The algorithm selects one point p randomly and uniformly from P, and recursively finds the minimal circle containing P – {p}, i.e. all of the other points in P except p. If the returned circle also encloses p, it is the minimal circle for the whole of P and is returned. Otherwise, point p must lie on the boundary of the result circle.

  5. Minkowski plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minkowski_plane

    Analogously to Möbius and Laguerre planes we get the connection to the linear geometry via the residues. For a Minkowski plane = (,; +,,) and we define the local structure := (¯, {{¯}} {¯ {¯ +, ¯}},) and call it the residue at point P.

  6. Circle packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing

    In the two-dimensional Euclidean plane, Joseph Louis Lagrange proved in 1773 that the highest-density lattice packing of circles is the hexagonal packing arrangement, [1] in which the centres of the circles are arranged in a hexagonal lattice (staggered rows, like a honeycomb), and each circle is surrounded by six other circles.

  7. Special cases of Apollonius' problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_cases_of_Apollonius...

    Draw circle C that has PQ as diameter. Draw one of the tangents from G to circle C. point A is where the tangent and the circle touch. Draw circle D with center G through A. Circle D cuts line l at the points T1 and T2. One of the required circles is the circle through P, Q and T1. The other circle is the circle through P, Q and T2.

  9. Conformal geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conformal_geometry

    Möbius geometry is the study of "Euclidean space with a point added at infinity", or a "Minkowski (or pseudo-Euclidean) space with a null cone added at infinity".That is, the setting is a compactification of a familiar space; the geometry is concerned with the implications of preserving angles.
