任教教授: 鄭文銓博士 (香港中文大學)
大學認可: 中文大學2學分
教學語言:粵語為主,附以英文教材
對象: 曾修讀本課程或特別優秀的高中學生,學員須具備大學初等數學的知識。
內容簡介: 本科以複平面的特殊幾何結構為起點,討論複數變換的對稱性和保圓性,並介紹複平面與球面的對應,以及學習莫比烏斯變換。掌握這些知識後,同學便可從現代的幾何觀點,理解「非歐幾何」各種異常有趣的性質,包括:平行與超平行、非歐距離、常曲率空間和非歐三角學等。
學費: 港幣 3,970元正 (已包含港幣20元申請費用)**

Lecturer: Dr. CHENG Man Chuen (CUHK)
University Recognition: 2 credits of CUHK
Medium of Instruction: mainly in Cantonese with English course materials
Expected applicants: Senior form students who have distinguished mathematical performance or have taken any previous EPYMT course. Students are expected to have exposure to beginning knowledge of tertiary mathematics.
Introduction: : Starting with special geometric structures of complex plane, students will learn symmetry and conformality on complex transformations; the intriguing correspondence between the complex plane and a sphere; and Mobius transformation. Then students would be introduced to a number of amazing properties of Non-Euclidean Geometry from a modern point of view, including hyper-parallelism, non-Euclidean distance, constant curvature, and hyperbolic trigonometry.
Tuition fee: HK$3,970 (with $20 application fee included)**
Remark:
*This course is offered face-to-face lessons at CUHK campus. It may switch to online teaching, subject to the actual situation.
**The tuition fee will be adjusted to HK$3,020 (with $20 application fee included) if the course finally switches to online teaching.
