02 Spherical Geometry Basics
... We can rotate the sphere so that one of the points is the north pole. Then, as long as the other point is not the south pole, the shortest distance along the sphere is obvsiouly to go due south. We are, from now on, going to rule out pairs of antipodal points such as the north and south poles, becau ...

Girard`s Theorem: Triangles and
... this is a natural and elegant question to ask! The proof of Girard’s theorem is rather easy once we establish what we mean by ‘spherical triangle’ and how it relates to ‘lunes’. A spherical triangle is created by the pairwise intersections of three great circles. A great circle is the circle around ...

Problems for the exam
... 8. Is it possible to realize CP2 as a finite CW-complex with an even number of cells in every dimension? 9. Viewing S 1 ⊂ C2 as the unit complex numbers, define a continuous map φ : S1 × S1 → S1 × S1 by φ(ξ1 , ξ2 ) = (ξ1 , ξ1 ξ2 ). Is φ homotopic to the identity map? 10. Let ι : S 1 ,→ S 2 be the eq ...
