Hyperbolic Center of Mass for a System of Particles in a Two-Dimensional Space with Constant Negative Curvature: An Application to the Curved 2-Body Problem
In this article, a simple expression for the center of mass of a system of material points in a two-dimensional surface of Gaussian constant negative curvature is given. By using the basic techniques of geometry, we obtained an expression in intrinsic coordinates, and we showed how this extends the definition for the Euclidean case. The argument is constructive and serves to define the center of mass of a system of particles on the one-dimensional hyperbolic sphere LR1.
