Hyperbolic completeness
Abstract
Completeness of the hyperbolic upper-half-space metric.
When the horizontal real inner product space is complete, its hyperbolic upper half-space is complete. A hyperbolic Cauchy sequence has Cauchy Euclidean coordinates and Cauchy logarithmic heights; the limiting height remains positive. This establishes completeness of the model. Manifold curvature, quotient completeness, finite-volume cusps, and Mostow–Prasad rigidity remain separate obligations.
Theorem 1.1 (Logarithmic height bound).
Lean statement: D5/S3/Geometry/HyperbolicCompleteness.dist_log_height_le
Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S3/Geometry/HyperbolicCompleteness.dist_log_height_le (✓ std3). ∎
Source. Repository-derived.
Commentary.
The difference of log-heights is bounded by the normalized distance.
Definition 1.2 (Complete-space instance).
Lean statement: D5/S3/Geometry/HyperbolicCompleteness.hyperbolicCompleteSpace
Formalization. D5/S3/Geometry/HyperbolicCompleteness.hyperbolicCompleteSpace (✓ std3).
Source. Repository-derived.
Commentary.
Coordinate completeness and the positive exponential limit of height yield hyperbolic convergence.
