Starting with special geometric structures of complex plane, students will learn symmetry and conformality on complex transformations; the intriguing correspondence between the complex plane and a sphere; and Mobiüs transformation. Then students would be introduced to a number of amazing properties of Non-Euclidean Geometry from a modern point of view, including hyper-parallelism, non-Euclidean distance, constant curvature, and hyperbolic trigonometry.
本科以複平面的特殊幾何結構為起點,討論複數變換的對稱性和保圓性,並介紹複平面與球面的對應,以及學習莫比烏斯變換。掌握這些知識後,同學便可從現代的幾何觀點,理解「非歐幾何」各種異常有趣的性質,包括:平行與超平行、非歐距離、常曲率空間和非歐三角學等。
