We present a variety of geometrical and combinatorial tools that are used in the study of geometric structures on surfaces: volume, contact, symplectic, complex and almost complex structures. We start with a series of local rigidity results…

We study the geometrical optics generated by a refractive index of the form $n(x,y)=1/y$ $(y>0)$, where $y$ is the coordinate of the vertical axis in an orthogonal reference frame in $\R^2$. We thus obtain what we call "hyperbolic…

We suggest a new approach to the study of relatively hyperbolic groups based on relative isoperimetric inequalities. Various geometric, algebraic, and algorithmic properties are discussed.

The paper is devoted to some extremal problems, related to convex polygons in the Euclidean plane and their perimeters. We present a number of results that have simple formulations, but rather intricate proofs. Related and still unsolved…

This paper builds two detailed examples of generalized normal in non-Euclidean spaces, i.e. the hyperbolic and elliptic geometries. In the hyperbolic plane we define a n-sided hyperbolic polygon P, which is the Euclidean closure of the…

Complete hyperbolicity of small Euclidean balls with respect to a C^1-smooth almost complex structure standard at origin is improved to give a complete hyperbolicity of strictly pseudoconvex domains. More precise (and lower) regularity…

We describe local similarities and global differences between minimal surfaces in Euclidean 3-space and constant mean curvature 1 surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space. We also describe how to solve global period problems for constant mean…

In this paper we give two different proofs of Bobenko and Springborn's theorem of circle pattern: there exists a hyperbolic (or Euclidean) circle pattern with proscribed intersection angles and cone angles on a cellular decomposed surface…

The memoir Theorie der Parallellinien (1766) by Johann Heinrich Lambert is one of the founding texts of hyperbolic geometry, even though its author's aim was, like many of his pre-decessors', to prove that such a geometry does not exist. In…

Using the method of C. V\"or\"os, we establish results in hyperbolic plane geometry, related to triangles and circles. We present a model independent construction for Malfatti's problem and several trigonometric formulas for triangles.
