Closed form ODE solutions for Jacobi field/eigenfunction of Laplacian on hyperbolic space

I'm trying to compute Jacobi fields of the hyperbolic disk $\mathbb{H}^m$ considered as a minimal hypersurface in $\mathbb{H}^{m+1}$ in the half model. References to literature or solutions to the ...

$\mathbb{CP}^1$-structures and hyperbolic Gauss maps

Let $\Sigma$ be a closed surface of genus at least $2$. Put a quasi-Fuchsian $\mathbb{CP}^1$-structure (i.e. complex projective structure) on $\Sigma$. Thus the universal cover $\tilde{\Sigma}$ is ...

Can the hyperbolic plane be immersed in three dimensional Euclidean space, if we are only looking for a weak solution?

Consider the following question: "Can the hyperbolic plane $(\mathbb{R}^2, g_H)$ be isometrically immersed in three dimensional Eulidean space$(\mathbb{R}^3, g_{flat})$?" I believe the answer to ...
