The double of a hyperbolic triangle #

Let P be a convex hyperbolic triangle, with vertices in ℍ ∪ ∂ℍ, whose interior angles at the two ends P 0, P 1 of side 0 are acute. Reflecting P in the geodesic line of side 0 gives a second triangle, and together they form the convex quadrilateral P.doubleTriangle with vertices P 0, P 2', P 1, P 2, where P 2' is the mirror image of P 2 (ConvexPolygon.carrier_doubleTriangle). The acute angles are what makes it strictly convex at P 0 and P 1. Its interior angles there are twice those of P, and at P 2 and its mirror image they equal the angle of P at P 2. Another side of P can be doubled by first relabelling the vertices with ConvexPolygon.rotate.

Its side pairing by products of reflections, used to construct hyperbolic triangle groups, is ConvexPolygon.doubleTriangleSidePairing in TauCeti.Analysis.Complex.UpperHalfPlane.Polygon.SidePairing.DoubleTriangle.

@[simp]

The reflection in the line of a side of a convex polygon fixes the starting vertex of that side.

@[simp]

The reflection in the line of a side of a convex polygon fixes the final vertex of that side. The index of that vertex is a separate variable, so that simp can use this lemma for explicit indices such as P.vertex 2 and side 1.

The double of a triangle across a side. For a triangle P whose angles at the ends of side 0 are acute, the convex quadrilateral with vertices P 0, the mirror image of P 2 in side 0, P 1 and P 2, in this counterclockwise order. Its carrier is the union of P and its mirror image (carrier_doubleTriangle).

    The vertices of the double of a triangle.

    A vertex of the double is ideal exactly when the vertex of P it comes from is: the vertices P 0, P 2', P 1, P 2 of the double come from the vertices 0, 2, 1, 2 of P.

    A vertex of the double is finite exactly when the vertex of P it comes from is: the vertices P 0, P 2', P 1, P 2 of the double come from the vertices 0, 2, 1, 2 of P.

    The double of a triangle is the union of the triangle and its mirror image in side 0.

    Interior angles #

    @[simp]

    The angle of the double at P 0 is twice that of P: the ray towards P 1 bisects it, the reflection in side 0 exchanging its two halves.

    @[simp]

    The angle of the double at P 1 is twice that of P: the ray towards P 0 bisects it, the reflection in side 0 exchanging its two halves.

    @[simp]

    The angle of the double at the mirror image of P 2 is the angle of P at P 2.

    @[simp]

    The angle of the double at P 2 is the angle of P there.
