  1. Why are certain PDE called "elliptic", "hyperbolic", or "parabolic"?

    Apr 30, 2020 · Why are the Partial Differential Equations so named? i.e, elliptical, hyperbolic, and parabolic. I do know the condition at which a general second order partial differential equation …

  2. Real world uses of hyperbolic trigonometric functions

    Jan 27, 2017 · I covered hyperbolic trigonometric functions in a recent maths course. However I was never presented with any reasons as to why (or even if) they are useful. Is there any good examples …

  3. linear transformations - Is hyperbolic rotation really a rotation ...

    Feb 27, 2018 · 1 Hyperbolic rotations are useful when working with hyperbolic geometry, in the Minkowski hyperboloid model. Euclidean plane is represented as the set of points [x,y,z]T [x, y, z] T …

  4. What are the interesting applications of hyperbolic geometry?

    By contrast, in hyperbolic space, a circle of a fixed radius packs in more surface area than its flat or positively-curved counterpart; you can see this explicitly, for example, by putting a hyperbolic metric …

  5. Unifying the connections between the trigonometric and hyperbolic …

    Jan 25, 2021 · This can even be used to define the hyperbolic functions geometrically, and many authors do the same with the trigonometric functions. Sine and hyperbolic sine are odd, whereas …

  6. Relationship Between Hyperbolas and Hyperbolic Spaces

    Feb 17, 2022 · 2) When searching for images of "Hyperbolic Spaces", the following types of images always come up: What is the relationship between the above diagrams and hyperbolic spaces? Are …

  7. What is the volume of the sphere in hyperbolic space?

    Sep 21, 2015 · I used the same analogy between goniometric and hyperbolic functions to solve it for sphere: if I have a certain length a of straight line, I can construct the perpendicular lines at the …

  8. Why are the hyperbolic functions defined the way they are?

    Feb 7, 2020 · How is hyperbolic function related to trigonometry ? The followings are the graphical representation between geometric and hyperbolic functions (especially for sinx, cosx, tanx, sinhx, …

  9. Conditions for Mobius transformation to be elliptic and hyperbolic

    Apr 14, 2025 · This would essentially prove that any non-parabolic transformation is at once elliptic and hyperbolic. This certainly can't be the case, so where have I gone wrong?

  10. linear transformations - Is there a Hyperbolic Rotation Formula using ...

    Aug 2, 2024 · What do you mean be "hyperbolic rotations"? Do you mean a rotation in hyperbolic space, or a Lorentz boost? These are quite different, as Lorentz boosts actually correspond to translations in …
