The Poincaré Riemannian metric #
The canonical tensor on the upper half-plane is the Euclidean inner product divided by the
square of the imaginary coordinate. We construct it as a smooth real Riemannian metric, the
Euclidean metric rescaled by im⁻² through Bundle.ContMDiffRiemannianMetric.rescale, and
install it as the Riemannian structure of the tangent bundle of ℍ.
Its Riemannian volume is Mathlib's invariant measure volume : Measure ℍ, whose density is
y⁻² dx dy. In the inclusion chart the Gram matrix of the Poincaré tensor is y⁻² times the
Euclidean Gram matrix, so the Riemannian volume density is y⁻² against Lebesgue measure on ℂ.
Thus the hyperbolic areas computed with volume, such as covolumes of Fuchsian groups and the
Gauss–Bonnet formula, are areas for the Poincaré metric.
The convention is the upper half-plane model in J. M. Lee, Introduction to Riemannian Manifolds, 2nd ed., Springer GTM 176 (2018), Chapter 3.
