Hyperbolic space is a type of non-Euclidean geometry characterized by a constant negative curvature, which means that the sum of the angles in a triangle is less than 180 degrees. This unique structure leads to fascinating properties, such as the existence of infinitely many parallel lines through a given point not on a given line. The concept is foundational to understanding hyperbolic manifolds and how they relate to topology and various geometric properties.
