Asymmetric expansion preserves hyperbolic convexity

Abstract

In an earlier paper we showed that the radial expansion of a hyperbolic convex set in the Poincaré disk about any point inside it results in a hyperbolic convex set. In this work, we generalize this result by showing that the asymmetric expansion of a hyperbolic convex set about any point inside it also results in a hyperbolic convex set.
