Hyperbolic spaces have recently gained momentum in the context of machine learning due to their high capacity and tree-likeliness properties. However, the representational power of hyperbolic geometry is not yet on par with Euclidean…

Let $ P \colon \mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C} $ be an entire function. A Poincar\'e function $ L \colon \mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C} $ of $ P $ is the entire extension of a linearising coordinate near a repelling fixed point of $ P $. We propose…

The invention of non-Euclidean geometries is often seen through the optics of Hilbertian formal axiomatic method developed later in the 19th century. However such an anachronistic approach fails to provide a sound reading of Lobachevsky's…

In this article we find locally an eigenfunctions for a particular nonlinear hyperbolic differential operator $\Delta_H u^{n}$, where $\Delta_H$ is the hyperbolic Laplacian in the half-plane of Poincair\'e. We have proved that these…

Hyperbolic neural networks can effectively capture the inherent hierarchy of graph datasets, and consequently a powerful choice of GNNs. However, they entangle multiple incongruent (gyro-)vector spaces within a layer, which makes them…

Classical (Euclidean) Laguerre geometry studies oriented hyperplanes, oriented hyperspheres, and their oriented contact in Euclidean space. We describe how this can be generalized to arbitrary Cayley-Klein spaces, in particular hyperbolic…

By analogy with complex numbers, a system of hyperbolic numbers can be introduced in the same way: z=x+h*y with h*h=1 and x,y real numbers. As complex numbers are linked to the Euclidean geometry, so this system of numbers is linked to the…
