A partial differential equation of second-order, i.e., one of the form Au_(xx)+2Bu_(xy)+Cu_(yy)+Du_x+Eu_y+F=0, (1) is called hyperbolic if the matrix Z=[A B; B C] (2) ...

A point p on a regular surface M in R^3 is said to be hyperbolic if the Gaussian curvature K(p)<0 or equivalently, the principal curvatures kappa_1 and kappa_2, have opposite ...

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 ...

Taking the pole as the inversion center, the hyperbolic spiral inverts to Archimedes' spiral r=atheta.

The roulette of the pole of a hyperbolic spiral rolling on a straight line is a tractrix.

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

A 4-hyperboloid has negative curvature, with R^2=x^2+y^2+z^2-w^2 (1) 2x(dx)/(dw)+2y(dy)/(dw)+2z(dz)/(dw)-2w=0. (2) Since r=xx^^+yy^^+zz^^, (3) it follows that ...

Let two points x and y be picked randomly from a unit n-dimensional hypercube. The expected distance between the points Delta(n), i.e., the mean line segment length, is then ...

y^(n/m)+c|x/a|^(n/m)-c=0, with n/m>2. If n/m<2, the curve is a hypoellipse.

The analytic summation of a hypergeometric series. Powerful general techniques of hypergeometric summation include Gosper's algorithm, Sister Celine's method, Wilf-Zeilberger ...
