Abstract

AbstractA new metric on the open 2-dimensional unit disk is defined making it a geodesically complete metric space whose geodesic lines are precisely the Euclidean straight lines. Moreover, it is shown that the unit disk with this new metric is not isometric to any hyperbolic model of constant negative curvature, nor to any convex domain in $$\mathbb {R}^2$$ R 2 equipped with its Hilbert metric.
