The distortion of distances between points under maps is studied. We first prove a Schwarz-type lemma for quasiregular maps of the unit disk involving the visual angle metric. Then we investigate conversely the quasiconformality of a…
This second part on polygons in the hyperbolic plane is based on the first part which deals with uniqueness and existence of cocyclic polygons with prescribed sidelengths. The topic here is the maximum question for the area of these…
Barycentric coordinates are commonly used in Euclidean geometry. Following the adaptation of barycentric coordinates for use in hyperbolic geometry in recently published books on analytic hyperbolic geometry, known and novel results…
We study a new hyperbolic type metric recently introduced by Song and Wang. We present formulas for it in the upper half-space and the unit ball domains and find its sharp inequalities with the hyperbolic metric and the triangular ratio…
How can we convince students, who have mainly learned to follow given mathematical rules, that mathematics can also be fascinating, creative, and beautiful? In this paper I discuss different ways of introducing non-Euclidean geometry to…
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…
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.
A hyperbolic polygon is defined to be cyclic, horocyclic, or equidistant if its vertices lie on a metric circle, horocycle, or a component of the equidistant locus to a hyperbolic geodesic, respectively. Convex such $n$-gons are…
We examine Euclidean plane domains with their hyperbolic or quasihyperbolic distance. We prove that the associated metric spaces are quasisymmetrically equivalent if and only if they are bi-Lipschitz equivalent. On the other hand, for…
We establish a uniformization result for metric surfaces - metric spaces that are topological surfaces with locally finite Hausdorff 2-measure. Using the geometric definition of quasiconformality, we show that a metric surface that can be…
The precise behavior of the quasi-hyperbolic metric near a $\mathcal C^{1,1}$-smooth part of the boundary of a domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is obtained.
Markov's theorem classifies the worst irrational numbers with respect to rational approximation and the indefinite binary quadratic forms whose values for integer arguments stay farthest away from zero. The main purpose of this paper is to…
We prove that if a proper metric space is quasi-isometric to a finitely generated group and to a space with a horoball over a finitely generated group, then that space is quasi-isometric to a rank-one symmetric space or the real line.
Any closed, oriented, hyperbolic three-manifold with nontrivial second homology has many quasigeodesic flows, where quasigeodesic means that flow lines are uniformly efficient in measuring distance in relative homotopy classes. The flows…
We discuss an alternative approach to the uniformisation problem on surfaces with boundary by representing conformal structures on surfaces $M$ of general type by hyperbolic metrics with boundary curves of constant positive geodesic…
We study the Hessian geometry of toric Gibbons-Hawking metrics and their phase change phenomena via the images of their moment maps.
We will consider close-to-convexity of the metric balls defined by the quasihyperbolic metric and the $j$-metric. We will show that the $j$-metric balls with small radii are close-to-convex in general subdomains of $\Rn$ and the…
Graph-structured data are widespread in real-world applications, such as social networks, recommender systems, knowledge graphs, chemical molecules etc. Despite the success of Euclidean space for graph-related learning tasks, its ability to…
This is a survey of metric properties of non-Euclidean conics, mainly based on works of Chasles and Story. A spherical conic is the intersection of the sphere with a quadratic cone; similarly, a hyperbolic conic is the intersection of the…
Representing data in hyperbolic space can effectively capture latent hierarchical relationships. With the goal of enabling accurate classification of points in hyperbolic space while respecting their hyperbolic geometry, we introduce…
