Description for Hyperbolic Triangle Centers
Hardback. Abraham Ungar laid the foundation for investigating hyperbolic triangle centers via hyperbolic barycentric coordinates, and in this book he initiates a study of hyperbolic triangle centers in full analogy with the rich study of Euclidian triangle centers. Series: Fundamental Theories of Physics. Num Pages: 335 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBM; PBW. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 19. Weight in Grams: 1430.
After A. Ungar had introduced vector algebra and Cartesian coordinates into hyperbolic geometry in his earlier books, along with novel applications in Einstein’s special theory of relativity, the purpose of his new book is to introduce hyperbolic barycentric coordinates, another important concept to embed Euclidean geometry into hyperbolic geometry. It will be demonstrated that, in full analogy to classical mechanics where barycentric coordinates are related to the Newtonian mass, barycentric coordinates are related to the Einsteinian relativistic mass in hyperbolic geometry. Contrary to general belief, Einstein’s relativistic mass hence meshes up extraordinarily well with Minkowski’s four-vector formalism of special relativity. ... Read more
