My intuition for hyperbolic space isn't particularly great, but if the corners are infinitely far away, you could fit a lot into that room. :D If you fix your room size to say 30m² instead of infinity I bet you would get used to it quickly. Possibly the preferred shape for a dining table would be hexagonal rather than rectangular. I imagine that having a dinner party would be pretty annoying nevertheless, as everyone is really far away and you have to speak loudly, but at the same time everyone is fighting about table space because the center table is really small. In that regard, people sitting in the center around a circular bar or counter-type thing and facing outwards would be more practical, as you can fit 20 side dishes and 3 drinks on the table without bothering your table neighbor; and at the same time you're closer together, encouraging chatter. But then of course nobody is facing each other which is a bit awkward aswell. Hyperbolic architecture seems pretty challenging :D

If you move your head in a certain way and the floor is now on the ceiling, then you haven't moved the floor, you have moved your head. The floor now appears to be on the ceiling because your head is now upside down. How did your head get upside down if you didn't rotate it? It has to do with navigation, thusly: If you walk forward into the cube in front of you, then shuffle to your left, then you haven't changed the direction you are facing in, you have changed your direction of travel (90° anticlockwise) change it again and walk backwards into the cube behind you, then again and shuffle to your right into the cube that is there. If you were in Euclidean space, then by now, you would be back where you started and still facing in the same direction as when you started, but you still have two more cubes to go. Walk forwards into the cube in front of you. Shuffle to the left into the cube to your left. NOW, you are back where you started, but you are facing in the opposite direction to the one you were facing in when you started. Similarly, if you could climb up into the cube above you, then shuffle to the left into the cube to the left, then lower yourself down to the cube below that, then shuffle to the right into the cube that is there, then you would not be back where you started. Then climb up into the cube above you, then shuffle to your left into the cube that is to your left. NOW you are back in the cube you started in, but you are upside-down. This is the journey your eyes would go on, if you were to observe someone in front of you, making such a journey. And that is how your head ends up upside down.

Just tried this on the Vive and it is pretty interesting. You can have a whole cube that looks like it is close enough and small enough that you can grab it, but the closer you get the further and bigger it appears until it is big enough to be a room. Also, maintaining my balance while walking around was pretty hard. I constantly felt like I was tripping on air. I think it would be pretty interesting to have a mode with different shapes of different sizes at varying distances which would make this much harder for your mind to comprehend the space..

Just imagine a world where the cubes are actually trapazoids widening as depth furthers and light travels in a funnel as it returns to the viewer but they viewer assumes light returns in a straight path. The weight of the funnel effect is dependent on distance from a point and forward velocity is directly proportional to funnel effect. As with most of these theories they cannot work in standard 3d solid space and are more just fancy math. Throw it in the string theory basket, It may get you a doctorate but really its all based on niche ideals and assumed states. When queried provides a paradox and as such cannot be a true theory. edit: addition You could assume a niche scenario as a voyager traveling through space with gravity distorting light allowing a view similar to this effect however, as the view sees this result his view is distorted, in reality these objects are placed as the basic laws of 3d space define.

That was a very well done presentation, thank you.

What would it feel like to be in such a space? Would you feel some sort of anti-gravity pulling you apart in every direction or something of the sort? And what would happen if you tried those parallel transport movements with a real body instead of a floating camera, with your feet attached to some solid part of the structure? Would you feel a torque on your head? Assuming some sort of gravity-like force aligned with the "floor" of each cell, would a human be able to walk in there without tripping or would the parallel transport keep twisting the feet too much on each step? Would our balance sense even work right with these movement induced torques?

There would be a noticeable effect, depending on your size relative to the curvature. As you walk forwards, your head and your feet move along geodesics that diverge, so you would feel an effective force pulling them apart.

Hm, I hadn't thought about it that way; so all motions would cause a stretching force on objects? Would that make solid objects spring back to a fixed position, or would it just produce a drag effect even in a vacuum? What about the behavior of liquids?

*Caution:* do not try to enter any non-euclidean space in real life. You would die. No rigid object can transition between spaces of different curvature and survive intact, since the ratio between volume and surface area would be forced to change. To visualize what would happen to your rigid sub-parts (aka "bones") if the curvature of the space you're in were to decrease to make it hyperbolic, think about what happens if you take a hemisphere (a 2d object with positive curvature) and force it to become flat (zero curvature).

I had to think a moment what on earth you were talking about, but then I realized you're talking about the curvature of spaceTIME. I don't know enough about general relativity to say much about this topic, so I'm not even sure whether the metric when restricted to a spatial slice (in, for example, the frame of reference of someone standing on earth) even has non-zero curvature at all. To the extent that it does, it is negligible on the scale on humans. The world we experience is flat, not curved.

Nobody: August of 2020: "Allow us non-Euclidian planes to introduce ourselves."

That's really cool. I like how VR enables better demonstration of extra-dimensional stuff.

I was always worried he would trip on the chord. Awesome video

I wonder how the following system would work to solve the problems with floors in H3: take some plane P in H3, and make the real "down" direction always perpendicular to P. This way, if your eye level in the real world is fixed, you will move on an surface equidistant to P in the simulation; if you crouch, you will move on another equidistant surface; if you crouch. move 1 meter, get back up, and move 1 meter back, you will end up in a slightly different location, contrary to H2xE . The world will appear to spin as you move (this effect appears in the Ivory Tower in HyperRogue which is based on a similar assumption about gravity)-- but this could be explained by the weird gravity, or minimized by assuming that the "natural" eye level corresponds to P itself.

Alternatively, horospheres could be used instead of planes and equidistant surfaces. This way, the simulation would be uniform in all directions (strange in all of them rather than less strange closer to the plane), and a quite regular tesselation consistent with gravity could be used (for example, use the shapes represented by cubes in the upper half-space model, with each cube adjacent to four cubes on its sides, 1/4 cube on the lower level and four cubes on the upper level).

We have thought about this kind of trick for fixing certain things. It's a bit of a cheat - the effects of movement will not be really "correct". But for some applications, e.g. tracking your hand controller relative to the headset, we will have to do something like this.

Well, I would say that using H2xR is a bit of a cheat too :) We have to cheat in some way to get gravity consistent between the two worlds. Imagine the Little Prince walking on a great circle around his tiny planet, his head would obviously rotate and so will the stars in his vision, but he would not feel it because it will be always at the same angle to gravity* -- I think the feeling in H3 VR based on this idea would be quite similar. * Not sure whether this is physically/physiologically correct, but it seems at least a bit reasonable.

@HaloInverse

6 жыл бұрын

You're almost going in the right direction, guessing at "3.5d". Imagine drawing two straight parallel lines on a piece of flat paper. As long as the lines started parallel, you could extend them out forever and they would _stay_ parallel - never crossing or moving apart. But if you tried drawing two straight parallel lines on a sphere, you wouldn't be able to - the lines would eventually cross over each other. A sphere is like a 2D surface "curved" through a third dimension. On a sphere, some of the rules of "flat" geometry don't apply, or work differently - like how parallel lines behave, or how the angles of a triangle add up to _more_ than 180° depending on how big the triangle is. You can also have a 2D surface that looks kind of like a saddle, that curves "opposite" to how a sphere curves - initially parallel lines will veer _away_ from each other instead of crossing like they do on a sphere, and triangles will add up to _less_ than 180°. These VR demos look and behave so weird because they show a 3D space "curved" through a _fourth_ dimension. Specifically, these are "hyperbolic" spaces - 3D spaces that "curve" the same way a 2D saddle "curves". Similar rules apply - such as parallel lines veering away from each other, despite being perfectly straight all along their length. This leads to things like being able to stick more than four 90° angles around a point (how many depends on how _much_ the space is curved), so you can walk through more than four cubes going around a single vertical axis (as shown). Another way to think about it visually, from the inside, is that "horizontal" distances in hyperbolic space are "bigger" the further away from you you look. If you made a circle and measured the radius vs. the circumference, you would notice that the circumference was _larger_ than 2 * pi * radius. In essence, "pi" is not constant, but _increases_ as the circle's radius increases. This is why things look "squished" or smaller than expected as they get further away - the angle of the chunk of space you're looking at is getting bigger with increasing distance, making everything in that space look smaller compared to how it would look in the "flat" 3D space you're used to.

HaloInverse that doesn't make sense. Non-euclidean space has nothing to do with 4d; it is still 3 dimensional; the inherent properties of a non-euclidean space differ from euclidean space; that doesn't magically mean another dimension is in any way involved; it simply means that thing behave differently as the properties that make up the space are different; it is still 3 dimensional... And what's with the 2d saddle comparison? You're better off saying it's a 3d saddle, since there is obviously depth involved.

@HaloInverse

Technically, you're right - non-euclidean space is not necessarily 4D, or any particular dimension other than "at least one more than the space itself". It'd just easier to describe non-euclidean spaces simply with visual metaphors, rather than breaking down the math of manifold classifications and Lie groups. If someone can do _that_ in a brief KZread comment, more power to 'em. Yes, the space _itself,_ and the objects in it, is/are still completely three-dimensional. The properties of geometry within that space can be defined by the curvature of that space _through_ an additional dimension. There is no "magical" involvement of higher dimensions, any more so than how words have certain meanings is "magical". The higher dimensions are used as part of the _definition_ of the properties of the space. A saddle-shape is indeed three-dimensional, as you say, but the surface _of_ that saddle is two-dimensional, like paper. It's just bent in a way that normal flat paper _isn't._ Describing how that 2D surface bends is easiest in 3D.

+hans wurst Confusing wording, maybe - but I don't think _wrong._ Have another look at your globe - the lines you're referring to (parallel to the equator = lines of latitude) are actually not straight at all. If you look at a _small_ section of one line of latitude, it may _look_ straight, but if you try to roll a ruler (or cylinder) along a latitude line (without sliding it!), you'll find that you have to keep _turning_ the ruler to stay matched up with the line. The closer to the poles you get, the more obviously the latitude lines curve. The only "straight" line of _latitude_ is the equator itself. (The lines of _longitude_ are all perfectly straight - but they all cross at both poles, so they're not "parallel".) Another way to test this is with some string. Remember that a straight line connecting two points is the _shortest_ path between them. If you lay a string between two points on a line of latitude (other than the equator!), then pull the string _tight_ across the surface of the globe between those points, you'll see the string "bend" away from the line of latitude. In fact, you'll be pulling the string _straight_ relative to the surface, and showing that the line of latitude (which follows a longer path than the tightened string) is _not_ straight by comparison. This is also related to why long-distance airplane routes often show up as "curved" on maps - the actual path is usually as straight as possible (gotta save fuel to maximize profits!), but when you "unfold" the globe onto most flat-projection types of map (with straight and parallel/perpendicular latitude/longitude lines), the airplane's apparent path is "bent" into a curve on the map by distorting the lines of latitude into straight lines.

I'm glad these people have access to virtual reality.

I don't know about you, but my vision is more or less completely gone while I'm breaking through on smoked/vaporized DMT. It's basically what we're seeing in this VR except vastly and infinitely more detailed and complex, along with a faded or completely absent sense of self, not to mention literally every other sense is replaced with the visual, audio and tactile hallucinations, completely. What would be the point of trying to put on a VR headset when you can't see what's actually going on a foot in front of you? I doubt this VR could make much of a difference to a full on DMT trip. I feel like this would be most gratifying on something that doesn't completely destroy lucidity and sense of self like DMT does. A phenothylamine or low(ish) doses of LSD. Something like 25i-nBOMe would actually be really cool in this kind of VR, because on that drug you're still aware of where you are and what you're doing, except a massive amount of visuals are projected onto what you already see, at least that's been my experience. So on that drug this VR would just be seriously enhanced and it would be neat to be able to analyze and understand how your psychedelic influenced brain interprets the VR visual reality. A high dose of pure MDMA or 2C-B would be fun as well, mostly because as with most phenothylamines (again, this is just my experience), you retain a certain amount of awareness and lucidity that you would need to actually appreciate what's going on with this VR, but those drugs interact particularly well when witnessing bright and diverse colors - in general I get the feeling that pheno hallucinations mostly have to do with greatly enhancing and warping the bright colours that you see, whereas tryptamines have less to do with the actual external stimuli and more to do with what's happening in your head. Hell, even a heady, THC rich cannabis would be a good fit in terms of making a fun VR/drug trip experience. But DMT totally and utterly shatters your world, sense of self, and every bit of genuine, physical visual stimuli just gets crowded out by the drug. I don't think I could even be aware of the fact I'm wearing a headset during a DMT trip, let alone use the VR to walk around and explore. The great part about tryptamines is that they turn the mundane regular world into a very crowded and intense hallucinogenic landscape, that is if you haven't taken enough to be totally turned inwards and unaware of anything outside of the trip in your head. I've always found that vast open spaces provoke more beautiful visuals and trips in general during a tryptamine high than confusing colors on a screen. The more tiny details your brain has to work with, the more it's able to conjure up detailed hallucinations. Sharp, simple shapes and colors on a screen couldn't really compare to an open field IMO. I know I'm taking this comment way too seriously, but it's often that I see people say things like "imagine this on DMT" and it makes me wonder if they've ever really broken through or smoked DMT at all, because when you're in a full on DMT trip, there's literally nothing else you can do other than be in the trip, and it's plenty exciting/terrifying/complex, so much so that even a seasoned regular DMT user wouldn't or couldn't really be looking for external ways to stimulate an already off-the-charts stimulating trip.

The virtual floorspace that you can actually walk on, is one and a half times larger than the physical floorspace. You could achieve greater virtual floorspace by teleporting to places that you can see outside the windows, portals, and having sections of the floor slowly drift like rafts. Not fast enough for you to feel the movement. Or stand still and have a giant conveyer belt, bring you rooms to step into.

Is it possible to represent the cubes as though euclidean, even when far away? The effect, in my mind, would be that you couldn't see the 6 cubes at 8:15. The 'pale blue' and 'salmon' cubes would look like the same cube, and the white one would be completely invisible, until you moved into either of the adjacent cubes. Going inside vertices seems like it wouldn't work anymore, and you wouldn't be able to hide the edges (as they would show the change between distant space, but it may also be much easier for new people to understand it.

Oh, I hadn't considered that the reason it looks the way it does is literally because the light rays move like that, as though through a space-warping lens. Thinking in this new way also helps me understand why things can warp the way they do without actually changing. You do say, though, that the assumption is that light rays travel along geodesics. Is that assumption able to be broken? I imagine you would lose the infinite regression to the vertices, but you would still be unable to walk around it. I think my issue is that I don't understand why light doesn't travel straight through, obeying the 90-degree turns, but rather seems to arc, causing that extra-fast convergence at a distance (re. the parallax at 10:05).

@henryseg

7 жыл бұрын

It's not through a space warping lens. Space itself is "warped" relative to ordinary euclidean space. If you remove the assumption that light rays travel along geodesics, you have to replace it with something. If the camera is at some point in space facing some direction, you have to tell it what it sees. Light rays traveling along geodesics is a natural choice, but there are others. See arxiv.org/pdf/1702.04004 for details.

Philip Polkovnikov Unlike euclidean space, hyperbolic space has no scaling transformations. You can’t make a right angled hexagon smaller without changing the angles.

That choice determines how big a square I need to walk around in real life to trace out a hyperbolic right angled hexagon.

Philip Polkovnikov I think it’s the other way around actually. The hyperbolic triangle with the biggest possible area is area pi, and all of its internal angles are zero. As you make triangles with bigger angles, the areas of them decrease, until you approach angle sum of pi (ie a euclidean triangle) as the area goes to zero. This is consistent with hyperbolic space feeling the same as euclidean space if you don’t make any large movements.
