Also known as the a Lorentz transformation or Procrustian stretch, a hyperbolic transformation leaves each branch of the hyperbola x^'y^'=xy invariant and transforms circles ...

The illustrations above show a number of hyperbolic tilings, including the heptagonal once related to the Klein quartic. Escher was fond of depicting hyperbolic tilings, ...

The surface with parametric equations x = (sinhvcos(tauu))/(1+coshucoshv) (1) y = (sinhvsin(tauu))/(1+coshucoshv) (2) z = (coshvsinh(u))/(1+coshucoshv), (3) where tau is the ...

A linear transformation A:R^n->R^n is hyperbolic if none of its eigenvalues has modulus 1. This means that R^n can be written as a direct sum of two A-invariant subspaces E^s ...

The hyperbolic cylinder is a quadratic surface given by the equation (x^2)/(a^2)-(y^2)/(b^2)=-1. (1) It is a ruled surface. It can be given parametrically by x = asinhu (2) y ...

A substitution which can be used to transform integrals involving square roots into a more tractable form. form substitution sqrt(x^2+a^2) x=asinhu sqrt(x^2-a^2) x=acoshu

An Archimedean spiral with polar equation r=a/theta. (1) The hyperbolic spiral, also called the inverse spiral (Whittaker 1944, p. 83), originated with Pierre Varignon in ...

A hyperbolic paraboloid is the quadratic and doubly ruled surface given by the Cartesian equation z=(y^2)/(b^2)-(x^2)/(a^2) (1) (left figure). An alternative form is z=xy (2) ...

The inverse hyperbolic tangent tanh^(-1)z (Zwillinger 1995, p. 481; Beyer 1987, p. 181), sometimes called the area hyperbolic tangent (Harris and Stocker 1998, p. 267), is ...

The inverse hyperbolic cosecant csch^(-1)z (Zwillinger 1995, p. 481), sometimes called the area hyperbolic cosecant (Harris and Stocker 1998, p. 271) and sometimes denoted ...
