2 Geometry of <strong>the</strong> two-sheeted hyperboloid. Projective structures.<br />

We start by recalling basic facts about <strong>the</strong> upper sheet of <strong>the</strong> two-sheeted<br />

hyperboloid of radius ρ, H 2 +ρ. Letχ, ϕ be a system of polar coordinates for<br />

H 2 +ρ . To each point θ =(χ, ϕ) we shall associate <strong>the</strong> vector x =(x 0,x 1 ,x 2 )of<br />

R 3 given by<br />

x 0 = ρ cosh χ,<br />

x 1 = ρ sinh χ cos ϕ, ρ > 0, χ 0, 0 ≤ ϕ
