Finding Fibonacci in the Hyperbolic Plane

Geometric Topology 2024-04-09 v1

Abstract

We use a combinatorial approximation of the hyperbolic plane to investigate properties of hyperbolic geometry such as exponential growth of perimeter and area of disks, and the linear isoperimetric inequality. This calculations give a surprising link to Fibonacci numbers.
