The Double Tangency Symmetries in Laguerre Plane

Jarosław Kosiorek, Andrzej Matraś (2007)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

The group generated by double tangency symmetries in a Laguerre plane is investigated. The geometric classification of involutions of a symmetric Laguerre plane is given. We introduce the notion of projective automorphisms using the double tangency and parallel perspectivities. We give the description of the groups of projective automorphisms and automorphisms generated by double tangency symmetries as subgroups of the group M(𝔽,ℝ) of automorphisms of a chain geometry Σ(𝔽,ℝ) following Benz.

The theorems of Stewart and Steiner in the Poincaré disc model of hyperbolic geometry

Oğuzhan Demirel (2009)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In [Comput. Math. Appl. 41 (2001), 135--147], A. A. Ungar employs the Möbius gyrovector spaces for the introduction of the hyperbolic trigonometry. This Ungar's work plays a major role in translating some theorems from Euclidean geometry to corresponding theorems in hyperbolic geometry. In this paper we explore the theorems of Stewart and Steiner in the Poincaré disc model of hyperbolic geometry.
