Hyperbolic Geometry
The refined beauty of hyperbolic geometries has attracted
mathematicians for decades. Herein you will find elegant models of
hyperbolic 2-space, discussion of the hyperbolic isometries,
illustrations of the isometries between the models, as well as some
appropriate trigonometry.
The Featured Attractions Are...
- Introduction to the Poincaré Disk, Upper Half Plane,
Klein-Beltrami and Minkowski Models of
Hyperbolic Geometry, including expository text,
appropriate equations, illustrative graphics, animations and
interactive applications.
- Exploration of the Isometries Between
the Models of hyperbolic geometry, including equations and
enlightening animations.
- Illustration of the Isometries of
Hyperbolic 2-Space in the Poincaré Disk, Upper Half Plane, and
Klein-Beltrami models with the aid of text, graphics, animations and
interactive applications.
- A few relevant equations of Hyperbolic
Trigonometry for the interested browser.
