Barycentric Calculus In Euclidean And Hyperbolic Geometry: A Comparative IntroductionAuthor(s): Abraham Albert Ungar\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd, Singapore\nImprint: World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd\nISBN-13: 9789814304931, 978-9814304931\nSynopsis\nThe word barycentric is derived from the Greek word barys (heavy), and refers to center of gravity. Barycentric calculus is a method of treating geometry by considering a point as the center of gravity of certain other points to which weights are ascribed. Hence, in particular, barycentric calculus provides excellent insight into triangle centers. This unique book on barycentric calculus in Euclidean and hyperbolic geometry provides an introduction to the fascinating and beautiful subject of novel triangle centers in hyperbolic geometry along with analogies they share with familiar triangle centers in Euclidean geometry. As such, the book uncovers magnificent unifying notions that Euclidean a.
