The Thomas gyration, in turn, allows the introduction of vectors into hyperbolic geometry, where they are called .gyrovectors., in such a way that Einstein‘s velocity additions turns out to be a gyrovector addition. Einstein‘s addition thus becomes a gyrocommutative, gyroassociative gyrogroup operation in the same way that ordinary vector addition is a commutative, associative group operation. Some gyrogroups of gyrovectors admit scalar multiplication, giving rise to gyrovector spaces in the same way that some groups of vectors that admit scalar multiplication give rise to vector spaces. Furthermore, gyrovector spaces form the setting for hyperbolic geometry in the same way that vector spaces form the setting for Euclidean geometry. In particular, the gyrovector space with gyrovector addition given by Einstein‘s (Möb | Pindex | Book 2002 |
