Hyperbolic metric space

In mathematics, a hyperbolic metric space is a metric space satisfying certain metric relations (depending quantitatively on a nonnegative real number δ) between points. The definition, introduced by Mikhael Gromov, generalizes the metric properties of classical hyperbolic geometry and of trees. Hyperbolicity is a large-scale property, and is very useful to the study of certain infinite groups called Gromov-hyperbolic groups. (Wikipedia).

What is a metric space ?

Metric space definition and examples. Welcome to the beautiful world of topology and analysis! In this video, I present the important concept of a metric space, and give 10 examples. The idea of a metric space is to generalize the concept of absolute values and distances to sets more gener

The circle and projective homogeneous coordinates (cont.) | Universal Hyperbolic Geometry 7b

Universal hyperbolic geometry is based on projective geometry. This video introduces this important subject, which these days is sadly absent from most undergrad/college curriculums. We adopt the 19th century view of a projective space as the space of one-dimensional subspaces of an affine

Hyperbolic Geometry is Projective Relativistic Geometry (full lecture)

This is the full lecture of a seminar on a new way of thinking about Hyperbolic Geometry, basically viewing it as relativistic geometry projectivized, that I gave a few years ago at UNSW. We discuss three dimensional relativistic space and its quadratic/bilinear form, particularly the uppe

Hyperbola 3D Animation | Objective conic hyperbola | Digital Learning

Hyperbola 3D Animation In mathematics, a hyperbola is a type of smooth curve lying in a plane, defined by its geometric properties or by equations for which it is the solution set. A hyperbola has two pieces, called connected components or branches, that are mirror images of each other an

What is a metric space? An example

This is a basic introduction to the idea of a metric space. I introduce the idea of a metric and a metric space framed within the context of R^n. I show that a particular distance function satisfies the conditions of being a metric.

Urs Lang (2/3/23): Combinatorial dimension and higher-rank hyperbolicity

Dress characterized metric spaces of combinatorial dimension at most n in terms of a 2(n+1)-point inequality. We investigate a relaxed version of this inequality, which in the case n = 1 reduces to Gromov's quadruple definition of δ-hyperbolicity and which we experimentally call (n,δ)-hype
