Band Model
The band model is a Conformal geometry, conformal Hyperbolic geometry#Models of the hyperbolic plane, model of the hyperbolic plane. The band model employs a portion of the Euclidean plane between two parallel lines. Distance is preserved along one line through the middle of the band. Assuming the band is given by \, the metric is given by , dz, \sec (\operatorname z). Geodesics include the line along the middle of the band, and any open line segment perpendicular to boundaries of the band connecting the sides of the band. Every end of a geodesic either meets a boundary of the band at a right angle or is asymptotic to the midline; the midline itself is the only geodesic that does not meet a boundary. Lines parallel to the boundaries of the band within the band are hypercycle (geometry), hypercycles whose common axis is the line through the middle of the band.

Conformal Geometry
In mathematics, conformal geometry is the study of the set of angle-preserving ( conformal) transformations on a space. In a real two dimensional space, conformal geometry is precisely the geometry of Riemann surfaces. In space higher than two dimensions, conformal geometry may refer either to the study of conformal transformations of what are called "flat spaces" (such as Euclidean spaces or spheres), or to the study of conformal manifolds which are Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with a class of metrics that are defined up to scale. Study of the flat structures is sometimes termed Möbius geometry, and is a type of Klein geometry. Conformal manifolds A conformal manifold is a Riemannian manifold (or pseudo-Riemannian manifold) equipped with an equivalence class of metric tensors, in which two metrics ''g'' and ''h'' are equivalent if and only if :h = \lambda^2 g , where ''λ'' is a real-valued smooth function defined on the manifold and is called the conformal fa ...

Hyperbolic Geometry
In mathematics, hyperbolic geometry (also called Lobachevskian geometry or János Bolyai, Bolyai–Nikolai Lobachevsky, Lobachevskian geometry) is a non-Euclidean geometry. The parallel postulate of Euclidean geometry is replaced with: :For any given line ''R'' and point ''P'' not on ''R'', in the plane containing both line ''R'' and point ''P'' there are at least two distinct lines through ''P'' that do not intersect ''R''. (Compare the above with Playfair's axiom, the modern version of Euclid's parallel postulate.) The hyperbolic plane is a plane (mathematics), plane where every point is a saddle point. Hyperbolic plane geometry is also the geometry of pseudosphere, pseudospherical surfaces, surfaces with a constant negative Gaussian curvature. Saddle surfaces have negative Gaussian curvature in at least some regions, where they local property, locally resemble the hyperbolic plane. The hyperboloid model of hyperbolic geometry provides a representation of event (relativity ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Geodesics In The Band Model
In geometry, a geodesic () is a curve representing in some sense the locally shortest path ( arc) between two points in a surface, or more generally in a Riemannian manifold. The term also has meaning in any differentiable manifold with a connection. It is a generalization of the notion of a "straight line". The noun ''geodesic'' and the adjective ''geodetic'' come from ''geodesy'', the science of measuring the size and shape of Earth, though many of the underlying principles can be applied to any ellipsoidal geometry. In the original sense, a geodesic was the shortest route between two points on the Earth's surface. For a spherical Earth, it is a segment of a great circle (see also great-circle distance). The term has since been generalized to more abstract mathematical spaces; for example, in graph theory, one might consider a geodesic between two vertices/nodes of a graph. In a Riemannian manifold or submanifold, geodesics are characterised by the property of having vanis ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hypercycle (geometry)
In hyperbolic geometry, a hypercycle, hypercircle or equidistant curve is a curve whose points have the same orthogonal distance from a given straight line (its axis). Given a straight line and a point not on , one can construct a hypercycle by taking all points on the same side of as , with perpendicular distance to equal to that of . The line is called the ''axis'', ''center'', or ''base line'' of the hypercycle. The lines perpendicular to , which are also perpendicular to the hypercycle, are called the '' normals'' of the hypercycle. The segments of the normals between and the hypercycle are called the ''radii''. Their common length is called the ''distance'' or ''radius'' of the hypercycle. The hypercycles through a given point that share a tangent through that point converge towards a horocycle as their distances go towards infinity. Properties similar to those of Euclidean lines Hypercycles in hyperbolic geometry have some properties similar to those of lines i ...
