Comparison of hyperbolic metric and triangular ratio metric in a square

Complex Variables 2026-05-26 v2

Abstract

Let KK be a square in the plane and ρK(x,y)\rho_K(x,y) be the hyperbolic distance between xx, yKy\in K. Denote by sK(x,y)s_K(x,y) the triangular ratio metric in KK; for xyx\neq y the value of sK(x,y)s_K(x,y) equals the ratio of the Euclidean distance xy|x-y| between xx, yKy\in K to the value infzK(xz+zy)\inf_{z\in \partial K}(|x-z|+|z-y|). We obtain a sharp estimate for the ratio of th(ρK(x,y)/2)\th (\rho_K(x,y)/2) to sK(x,y)s_K(x,y).
