Miroslav Lávička of this article is to figure some applications of Möbius geometry on chosen problems of geometric modelling (Computer Aided Geometric Design, CAGD) and through this to show that classical geometries still survive and in addition, they bring remarkable new results and algorithms. 2 Projective model of Möbius geometry Möbius geometry is a classical sphere geometry called after famous German mathematician August Ferdinand Möbius (1790–1868). According to Felix Klein and its Erlangen programme (1872), the content of Möbius geometry is the study of those properties which are invariant under Möbius transformations of Möbius space M n (where M n = E n ∪ {∞} is the conformal closure of the Euclidean space E n completed with the ideal point ∞ lying on every hyperplane but outside every hypersphere — both Euclidean hyperspheres and hyperplanes completed with ∞ are called Möbius hyperspheres). Then, Möbius transformations are such bijections that preserve non-oriented Möbius hyperspheres in M n . All Möbius transformations in M n form a group which is generated by inversions, i.e. reflections in hyperspheres (thus, Euclidean geometry can be obtained as a subgeometry of Möbius geometry when restricted to reflections in hyperplanes). Just introduced model is called a standard or classical model. In this article, we will work with further model. Let n-dimensional Euclidean space is immersed into Euclidean space E n+1 as the hyperplane x n+1 = 0 and let P n+1 denote the projective extension of E n+1 equipped with homogenous coordinates (x 0 , x 1 , . . . , x n+1 ) T ∈ R n+2 . We consider the unit n-sphere Σ ⊂ P n+1 described by the equation Σ : −x 2 0 + x 2 1 + . . . + x 2 n+1 = x T · E M · x = 0, (1) where E M = diag(−1, 1, . . . , 1) and an indefinite bilinear form 〈x, y〉 M = x T · E M · y = −x 0 y 0 + x 1 y 1 + . . . + x n+1 x n+1 (2) is called M-scalar product. Hence, the hypersphere Σ is described by the equation 〈x, x〉 M = 0, similarly we denote Σ + : 〈x, x〉 M > 0 (the exterior of Σ) and Σ − : 〈x, x〉 M < 0 (the interior of Σ). Thus P n+1 = Σ − ∪ Σ ∪ Σ + . If we apply so called extended stereographic projection with respect to n-sphere Σ and northpole n = (1, 0, ..., 0, 1) T we get one-to-one correspondence between points in P n+1 and Möbius hyperspheres in M n . 136
PROJECTIVE MODEL OF MÖBIUS GEOMETRY . . . What kind of mapping is the extended stereographic projection Ψ Shortly said, Ψ is a combination of the polarity Π : P n+1 → P ∗ n+1 induced by n-sphere Σ (an arbitrary point s ∈ P n+1 is mapped onto its polar hyperplane Π(s) ∈ P ∗ n+1 where P ∗ n+1 denotes a dual space to P n+1 ) and the standard stereographic projection σ : Σ → M n = = E n ∪ {∞} (the intersection of Π(s) with Σ is then mapped onto the Möbius hypersphere S of M n ) — the principle is seen in Fig. 1. This model is called a projective model. n=(1,0,...,0,1) s Figure 1: Extended stereographic projection Ψ : s ↦→ S. We can easily derive the analytic expression of the extended stereographic projection Ψ. Let s = (s 0 , s 1 , . . . , s n+1 ) T ∈ P n+1 then (i) if s 0 = s n+1 (i.e. s ∈ ν : x 0 − x n+1 = 0, where ν is the tangent hyperplane of Σ at the northpole n — so called north hyperplane) then Ψ(s) : −s 0 + s 1 x 1 + s 2 x 2 + . . . + s n x n = 0 (3) which is a hyperplane in M n ; (ii) if s 0 ≠ s n+1 (i.e. s ∉ ν) then Ψ(s) is a hypersphere S(m, r) ⊂ ⊂ M n with midpoint m and radius r where m = 1 s 0 − s n+1 · (s 1 , . . . , s n ) T , r 2 = −s2 0 + s 2 1 + . . . + s 2 n+1 (s 0 − s n+1 ) 2 (4) or with the help of M-scalar product (2) m = −1 〈s, n〉 M · (s 1 , . . . , s n ) T , r 2 = 〈s, s〉 M ( 〈s, n〉M ) 2 . (5) From (5) it is seen that points x ∈ P n+1 fulfilling the condition 〈x, x〉 M > 0 (points lying in Σ + ) are mapped onto real hyperspheres, 137

of this article is to figure some applications of Möbius geometry on<br />

Design, CAGD) and through this to show that classical geometries<br />
still survive and in addition, they bring remarkable new results and<br />
algorithms.<br />
2 Projective model of Möbius geometry<br />
Möbius geometry is a classical sphere geometry called after famous<br />
German mathematician August Ferdinand Möbius (1790–1868).<br />
According to Felix Klein and its Erlangen programme (1872), the<br />
content of Möbius geometry is the study of those properties which are<br />
invariant under Möbius transformations of Möbius space M n (where<br />
M n = E n ∪ {∞} is the conformal closure of the Euclidean space<br />
E n completed with the ideal point ∞ lying on every hyperplane but<br />
outside every hypersphere — both Euclidean hyperspheres and hyperplanes<br />
completed with ∞ are called Möbius hyperspheres). Then,<br />
Möbius transformations are such bijections that preserve non-oriented<br />
Möbius hyperspheres in M n . All Möbius transformations in M n form<br />
a group which is generated by inversions, i.e. reflections in hyperspheres<br />
(thus, Euclidean geometry can be obtained as a subgeometry<br />
of Möbius geometry when restricted to reflections in hyperplanes).<br />
Just introduced model is called a standard or classical model. In this<br />
article, we will work with further model.<br />
Let n-dimensional Euclidean space is immersed into Euclidean<br />
space E n+1 as the hyperplane x n+1 = 0 and let P n+1 denote the<br />
projective extension of E n+1 equipped with homogenous coordinates<br />
(x 0 , x 1 , . . . , x n+1 ) T ∈ R n+2 . We consider the unit n-sphere Σ ⊂ P n+1<br />
described by the equation<br />
Σ : −x 2 0 + x 2 1 + . . . + x 2 n+1 = x T · E M · x = 0, (1)<br />
where E M = diag(−1, 1, . . . , 1) and an indefinite bilinear form<br />
〈x, y〉 M = x T · E M · y = −x 0 y 0 + x 1 y 1 + . . . + x n+1 x n+1 (2)<br />
is called M-scalar product. Hence, the hypersphere Σ is described<br />
by the equation 〈x, x〉 M = 0, similarly we denote Σ + : 〈x, x〉 M > 0<br />
(the exterior of Σ) and Σ − : 〈x, x〉 M < 0 (the interior of Σ). Thus<br />
P n+1 = Σ − ∪ Σ ∪ Σ + .<br />
If we apply so called extended stereographic projection with respect<br />
to n-sphere Σ and northpole n = (1, 0, ..., 0, 1) T we get one-to-one correspondence<br />
between points in P n+1 and Möbius hyperspheres in M n .<br />
