  2. Hyperbolic manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_manifold

    The simplest example of a hyperbolic manifold is hyperbolic space, as each point in hyperbolic space has a neighborhood isometric to hyperbolic space. A simple non-trivial example, however, is the once-punctured torus. This is an example of an (Isom(), )-manifold.

  3. Hyperbolic space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_space

    In mathematics, hyperbolic space of dimension n is the unique simply connected, n-dimensional Riemannian manifold of constant sectional curvature equal to −1. [1] It is homogeneous , and satisfies the stronger property of being a symmetric space .

  4. Seifert–Weber space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seifert–Weber_space

    It is also known as Seifert–Weber dodecahedral space and hyperbolic dodecahedral space. It is one of the first discovered examples of closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds. It is constructed by gluing each face of a dodecahedron to its opposite in a way that produces a closed 3-manifold. There are three ways to do this gluing consistently.

    Let M be a compact smooth manifold, f: M → M a diffeomorphism, and Df: TM → TM the differential of f.An f-invariant subset Λ of M is said to be hyperbolic, or to have a hyperbolic structure, if the restriction to Λ of the tangent bundle of M admits a splitting into a Whitney sum of two Df-invariant subbundles, called the stable bundle and the unstable bundle and denoted E s and E u.

  7. Hyperbolic 3-manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_3-manifold

    An example of a noncompact, finite volume hyperbolic manifold obtained in this way is the Gieseking manifold which is constructed by gluing faces of a regular ideal hyperbolic tetrahedron together. It is also possible to construct a finite-volume, complete hyperbolic manifold when the gluing is not complete.

  8. Non-Euclidean geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Euclidean_geometry

    In mathematics, non-Euclidean geometry consists of two geometries based on axioms closely related to those that specify Euclidean geometry.As Euclidean geometry lies at the intersection of metric geometry and affine geometry, non-Euclidean geometry arises by either replacing the parallel postulate with an alternative, or relaxing the metric requirement.

  9. 3-manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-manifold

    In mathematics, Seifert–Weber space (introduced by Herbert Seifert and Constantin Weber) is a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold. It is also known as Seifert–Weber dodecahedral space and hyperbolic dodecahedral space. It is one of the first discovered examples of closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds.
