Tropical algebraic geometry is an active new field of mathematics that establishes and studies some very general principles to translate algebro-geometric problems into purely combinatorial ones. This expository paper gives an introduction…
Using the Plucker map between grassmannians, we study basic aspects of classic grassmannian geometries. For `hyperbolic' grassmannian geometries, we prove some facts (for instance, that the Plucker map is a minimal isometric embedding) that…
We define and study an extended hyperbolic space which contains the hyperbolic space and de Sitter space as subspaces and which is obtained as an analytic continuation of the hyperbolic space. The construction of the extended space gives…
We present a uniform framework generalising and extending the classical theories of projective differential geometry, c-projective geometry, and almost quaternionic geometry. Such geometries, which we call \emph{projective parabolic…
The universal cover or the covering group of a hyperbolic Riemann surface $X$ is important but hard to express explicitly. It can be, however, detected by the uniformisation and a suitable description of $X$. Beardon proposed five different…
In this talk we shall show a perfect fluid cosmological model and its properties. The model possesses an orthogonally transitive abelian two-dimensional group of isometries that corresponds to cylindrical symmetry. The matter content is a…
In this paper we consider partial linear spaces induced on the point set of a polar space, but with as lines the hyperbolic lines of this polar space. We give some geometric characterizations of these and related spaces. The results have…
We describe first steps towards a system for automated triangle constructions in absolute and hyperbolic geometry. We discuss key differences between constructions in Euclidean, absolute and hyperbolic geometry, compile a list of primitive…
We elaborate on some important ideas contained in Lobachevsky's Pangeometry and in some of his other memoirs. The ideas include the following: (1) The trigonometric formulae, which express the dependence between angles and edges of…
By "parallelogram geometry" we mean the elementary, "commutative", geometry corresponding to vector addition, and by "trapezoid geometry" a certain "non-commutative deformation" of the former. This text presents an elementary approach via…
First we introduce a generalization of symmetric spaces to parabolic geometries. We provide construction of such parabolic geometries starting with classical symmetric spaces and we show that all regular parabolic geometries with smooth…
Second-order superintegrable systems in dimensions two and three are essentially classified. With increasing dimension, however, the non-linear partial differential equations employed in current methods become unmanageable. Here we propose…
There is no field with only one element, yet there is a well-defined notion of what projective geometry over such a field means. This notion is familiar to experts and plays an interesting role behind the scenes in combinatorics and…
The purpose of this article is to demonstrate that i) the framework of elliptic hypergeometric integrals (EHIs) can be extended by input from supersymmetric gauge theory, and ii) analyzing the hyperbolic limit of the EHIs in the extended…
A representation of a finitely generated group into the projective general linear group is called convex co-compact if it has finite kernel and its image acts convex co-compactly on a properly convex domain in real projective space. We…
The book is designed for a semester-long course in Foundations of Geometry and meant to be rigorous, conservative, elementary and minimalist. List of topics: Euclidean geometry: The Axioms / Half-planes / Congruent triangles / Perpendicular…
The Hilbert metric on convex subsets of $\mathbb R^n$ has proven a rich notion and has been extensively studied. We propose here a generalization of this metric to subset of complex projective spaces and give examples of applications to…
The object of study of this article is compact surfaces in the three-dimensional hyperbolic space with a positive-definite second fundamental form. It is shown that several conditions on the Gaussian curvature of the second fundamental form…
For real application and theoretical investigation of ordinary hypergraphs and non-ordinary hypergraphs, researchers need to establish standard rules and feasible operating methods. We propose a visualization tool for investigating…
In classical Euclidean geometry, there are several equivalent definitions of conic sections. We show that in the hyperbolic plane, the analogues of these same definitions still make sense, but are no longer equivalent, and we discuss the…
