✦ Synopsis
We show that plane hyperbolic geometry, expressed in terms of points and the ternary relation of collinearity alone, cannot be expressed by means of axioms of complexity at most ∀∃∀, but that there is an axiom system, all of whose axioms are ∀∃∀∃ sentences. This remains true for Klingenberg's generalized hyperbolic planes, with arbitrary ordered fields as coordinate fields.

We provide a universal axiom system for plane hyperbolic geometry in a firstorder language with two sorts of individual variables, 'points' (upper-case) and 'lines' (lowercase), containing three individual constants, A0, A1, A2, standing for three non-collinear points, two binary operation symbols,
The generic Mobius transformation of the complex open unit disc induces a binary operation in the disc, called the Mobius addition. Following its introduction, ẗhe extension of the Mobius addition to the ball of any real inner product space änd the scalar multiplication that it admits are presented,
## Abstract A Lagrangian submanifold is called __Maslovian__ if its mean curvature vector __H__ is nowhere zero and its Maslov vector field __JH__ is a principal direction of __A~H~__ . In this article we classify Maslovian Lagrangian surfaces of constant curvature in complex projective plane __CP_
