 Cone point

A cone point on a metric surface has total angular measure $\theta$ about its tip. The flat model is $d{r}^2+(\theta /2\pi {)}^2{r}^{2}d{\phi }^2$, with $0\le \phi <2\pi$; the curvature-minus-one model replaces $r$ by $\sinh r$. In these models the tip is smooth when $\theta =2\pi$. For integer $m>1$, angle $2\pi /m$ gives a cyclic orbifold point of order $m$. Under a degree-$q$ local branched lift, the total angle is multiplied by $q$, and the residual orbifold order, when defined, is $m/q$.
