which the hyperbolic geodesics are represented as
Euclidean straight line segments), think of this disk or ball as being the projection of a higher-dimensional Euclidean sphere, and lift the line segments vertically onto the upper hemisphere. The resulting representations of hyperbolic geodesics on the hemisphere are always the intersections of the hemisphere with vertical planes, producing exactly semicircles perpendicular to the boundary. —

is necessary to return this comment or completely remove inappropriate references to this mathematician. When I studied the topic of non-Euclidean spaces at the university (including the history of this branch of mathematics), I never heard that name. I think that says a lot. Attempts to turn
Knowledge into a stronghold of communist propaganda should not be allowed.

I assumed that this conversation would boil down to insults. I am 67 years old, and I will not allow myself to be treated like that! I have been using
Knowledge for over a dozen years, but I have never seen anyone allow the communists to promote their ideology here. Are you russian or do you work for

If there are any mentions, it happens only in the context of describing the propaganda by russians/communists, who in every field of science tried to come up with their own "discoverers". This is wildness and cannot be seriously mentioned on
Knowledge outside of the section on historical absurdities.

removed the note that the mention of russian mathematician-plagiarist has more to do with Soviet Cold War propaganda than historical facts. This name is not used in any serious
English-language source, in extreme cases it is mentioned as an alternative with a reference to the Iron Curtain. I think it

and, in fact, it is already mentioned several times in the article. I just disagreed with your statement about it being the only way to embed a hyperbolic 2-space into an
Euclidean 3-space. Although now, I am not so sure that you were wrong. Also a small part of the pseudosphere might well look like

You are thinking of geodesics for the spherical geometry on the hemisphere, I think? It is a different geometry than the one described here and has different geodesics. Another way to think of the hemisphere model of hyperbolic geometry: take the Klein model (a disk or ball in
Euclidean space in

To JRSpriggs: The usual case is for infinite space and this is what is normally understood. Is there any mention of special finite
Euclidean constructions in the article?. But anyway why are you so much against mentioning the pseudo-sphere? As I said it has historical importance.
921:, it was purely because it had the right number of syllables, and not because of any actual history, right? There is no serious dispute that Lobachevksy should be listed with Gauss and Bolyai as one of the founders of hyperbolic geometry, and the first to publish of the three. —
875:
This is just nonsense I'm not going to answer. I'm still curious about a reference on the history of geometry that doe not mention
Lobachevsky in relation with hyperbolic geometry or that substitutes your wild claims, let me know if you find or recall one. Cheers,

to the boundary must either pass through the point (0, 0, +1) or be the intersection of hemisphere with a vertical plane which does not pass through (0. 0. 0). Any geodesic in the hemisphere must be the intersection of the hemisphere with a plane which
