Poincare ball model

ID: poincare-ball-model

The unit ball in Euclidean space with the displayed Riemannian metric models hyperbolic space of curvature minus one. Its ideal boundary is the unit sphere, and its geodesics are diameters or circle arcs orthogonal to that sphere. The metric is invariant under the conformal ball automorphisms.
