Some triangles in the hyperbolic plane have a circumscribed circle, and some do not. In this essay, we discuss hyperbolic polygons whose vertices lie on a circle, or a horocycle, or a hypercycle.

We denote the real logarithm of a positive number a by ln a, so that ax = exp (x ln a), and we shall discuss what is known about the real solutions x of the equation (1) $$x = {a^x},\;\,a > 0.$$ First, as exp t > 0 for all real t, each real solution

The positive solutions of the equation $$x^y = y^x$$ x y = y x have been discussed for over two centuries. Goldbach found a parametric form for the solutions, and later a connection was made with the classical Lambert function, which was also studied

In this note we present an alternative to Ford’s construction of the isometric circle of a Mobius map. This construction is based on the double coset decomposition of a group, together with the action of Mobius maps on spherical and hyperbolic spac

Many authors define an isometry of a metric space to be a distance-preserving map of the space onto itself. In this note, we discuss spaces for which surjectivity is a consequence of the distance-preserving property rather than an initial assumption.

In [1] the second author observed that it is possible to have a binary operation * on a set X with the property that two different arrangements of brackets in a given combination x1 * … * xn of elements of X yield the same outcome for all choices o

Several necessary and sufficient conditions for a family of Möbius maps to be a normal family in the extended complex plane $$\mathbb {C}_\infty $$ C ∞ are established. Each of these conditions involves collections of two or three points which may

There is much confusion in the literature about the meaning of zw , where z and w are complex numbers with z≠0 . For example, we are often told that eiπ=−1 (a number), but that ii is an infinite se...
