Its neighborhood expands for detail while the rest of the tree compresses toward the edge — exactly how hyperbolic tree browsers (Lamping & Rao, 1995) behave. - **Encodings:** Color = top-level package (`flare.vis`, `flare.util`, `flare.query`, etc.), dot size = root vs. other, labels appear only for nodes near the current focus to avoid clutter, hover for a tooltip with the full class path. - Click **"Reset to root"** to return to the default centered view. Try clicking around — e.g. click on `flare.vis` or `flare.query` to dive into that subtree, then click a leaf class to bring it fully into focus. Want me to: - Add breadcrumbs showing the current focus path? - Support zoom/pan (drag) in addition to click-to-focus? - Apply this same viewer to a different hierarchical dataset (e.g. your own data)?32:T785,// ---- complex numbers + SU(1,1) Möbius transform matrices ---- function cx(re, im = 0) { return { re, im }; } function cAdd(a, b) { return { re: a.re + b.re, im: a.im + b.im }; } function cMul(a, b) { return { re: a.re * b.re - a.im * b.im, im: a.re * b.im + a.im * b.re }; } function cConj(a) { return { re: a.re, im: -a.im }; } function cDiv(a, b) { const d = b.re * b.re + b.im * b.im; return { re: (a.re * b.re + a.im * b.im) / d, im: (a.im * b.re - a.re * b.im) / d }; } function cAbs2(a) { return a.re * a.re + a.im * a.im; } const IDENTITY_M = { a: cx(1, 0), b: cx(0, 0) }; // apply transform M to point z: (a z + b) / (conj(b) z + conj(a)) function mApply(M, z) { const num = cAdd(cMul(M.a, z), M.b); const den = cAdd(cMul(cConj(M.b), z), cConj(M.a)); return cDiv(num, den); } // compose: result(z) = M2(M1(z)) (apply M1 first, then M2) function mCompose(M2, M1) { const a = cAdd(cMul(M2.a, M1.a), cMul(M2.b, cConj(M1.b))); const b = cAdd(cMul(M2.a, M1.b), cMul(M2.b, cConj(M1.a))); return { a, b }; } // translation sending 0 -> p function translateTo(p) { const r2 = Math.min(0.999999, cAbs2(p)); const s = 1 / Math.sqrt(Math.max(1e-9, 1 - r2)); return { a: cx(s, 0), b: cx(p.re * s, p.im * s) }; } // translation sending f -> 0 (inverse-style, used for click-to-focus) function translateFrom(f) { const r2 = Math.min(0.999999, cAbs2(f)); const s = 1 / Math.sqrt(Math.max(1e-9, 1 - r2)); return { a: cx(s, 0), b: cx(-f.re * s, -f.im * s) }; } function mNormalize(M) { const norm = Math.sqrt(Math.max(1e-9, cAbs2(M.a) - cAbs2(M.b))); return { a: cx(M.a.re / norm, M.a.im / norm), b: cx(M.b.re / norm, M.b.im / norm) }; } // sanity check: translateTo then translateFrom the same point should be identity const testP = { re: 0.4, im: -0.3 }; const check = mApply(mCompose(translateFrom(testP), translateTo(testP)), { re: 0.1, im: 0.2 }); display(check); // should be ~ (0.1, 0.2)33:T164d,function createHyperbolicTreeViewer(nodes, { width = 700, height = 700, renderBudget = 600, labelBudget = 40, title = "Hyperbolic tree viewer", subtitleBase = "", domainR = 1.05 } = {}) { let M = IDENTITY_M; const container = html`

Here's a summary of what's now built: ## What's new **Continuous pan & zoom** — both implemented as genuine hyperbolic isometries (SU(1,1) Möbius matrix composition), not approximations: - **Drag** anywhere on the canvas to pan smoothly — content follows your cursor exactly, and you can pan forever in any direction (the boundary represents hyperbolic infinity, so you never "run out" of tree). - **Scroll wheel** zooms toward the cursor position — zoom in indefinitely to reveal ever more nested structure, zoom out to regain context. Every increment is composed onto a persistent transform matrix, so pan and zoom combine seamlessly with click-to-focus. - **Click** a node still snaps it directly to center (exact focus jump), while drag/zoom give fine continuous control. **Scalability** — tested with a synthetic **8,000-node** random tree: - Static layout (`d3.tree` + hyperbolic compression) computes in ~4ms regardless of size. - Each interactive frame only costs ~1ms because of a **render budget**: every frame, only the ~500-600 nodes closest to the current focus are drawn (viewport + budget culling), so cost is bounded no matter how large the underlying hierarchy is — a 100 or 100,000-node tree renders equally fast. - The subtitle reports live node counts (`showing X of N nodes`) and per-frame render time so you can see the culling working. **Reusability** — the whole thing is now two generic functions: - `ht_layout(root, {k})` — takes any `d3.hierarchy` root and computes hyperbolic disk positions. - `ht_viewer(nodes, {label, renderBudget, ...})` — mounts an interactive viewer; `label` lets you point it at any hierarchy's naming field (I used `.name` for Flare and `.id` for the synthetic tree). Try dragging and scrolling in either chart above! Want me to also add: - Momentum/inertia on release (so a flick keeps panning briefly)? - A minimap or breadcrumb trail showing the focus path? - Loading this against your own large hierarchical file (CSV path list, JSON tree, org chart, etc.)?3a:T627,ht_flareViewer.reset(); await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 20)); const ht_svg2 = ht_flareViewer.element.querySelector(":scope > figure > svg"); const ht_rect2 = ht_svg2.getBoundingClientRect(); // capture a node's position BEFORE dragging const beforeCircle = ht_svg2.querySelectorAll('g[aria-label="dot"] circle')[3]; const beforePos = { cx: beforeCircle.getAttribute("cx"), cy: beforeCircle.getAttribute("cy") }; display("before drag, 4th node position:", beforePos); // simulate a real multi-step drag (pointerdown -> several pointermoves -> pointerup) ht_svg2.dispatchEvent(new PointerEvent("pointerdown", { clientX: ht_rect2.left + 350, clientY: ht_rect2.top + 350, pointerId: 7, bubbles: true })); for (const [dx, dy] of [[20,0],[40,10],[70,20],[100,30]]) { ht_svg2.dispatchEvent(new PointerEvent("pointermove", { clientX: ht_rect2.left + 350 + dx, clientY: ht_rect2.top + 350 + dy, pointerId: 7, bubbles: true })); await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 20)); // let rAF flush between steps } ht_svg2.dispatchEvent(new PointerEvent("pointerup", { pointerId: 7, bubbles: true })); await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 20)); // re-query (DOM was replaced by re-render, so grab fresh svg/circle) const ht_svg3 = ht_flareViewer.element.querySelector(":scope > figure > svg"); const afterCircle = ht_svg3.querySelectorAll('g[aria-label="dot"] circle')[3]; const afterPos = { cx: afterCircle.getAttribute("cx"), cy: afterCircle.getAttribute("cy") }; display("after drag, same node's position:", afterPos); display("transform after drag:", ht_flareViewer.transform);3b:T4ff,// find a specific known node object (stable identity) rather than relying on DOM order const targetNode = ht_flareNodes.find(n => n.data.name === "flare.util"); display("target node:", targetNode.data.name, "static z0:", targetNode.z0); ht_flareViewer.reset(); await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 20)); const posBefore = ht_apply(ht_flareViewer.transform, targetNode.z0); display("projected position BEFORE drag:", posBefore); const svgA = ht_flareViewer.element.querySelector(":scope > figure > svg"); const rectA = svgA.getBoundingClientRect(); svgA.dispatchEvent(new PointerEvent("pointerdown", { clientX: rectA.left+350, clientY: rectA.top+350, pointerId: 9, bubbles: true })); for (const [dx,dy] of [[15,5],[35,15],[60,25],[90,35],[120,45]]) { svgA.dispatchEvent(new PointerEvent("pointermove", { clientX: rectA.left+350+dx, clientY: rectA.top+350+dy, pointerId: 9, bubbles: true })); await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 20)); } svgA.dispatchEvent(new PointerEvent("pointerup", { pointerId: 9, bubbles: true })); await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 20)); const posAfter = ht_apply(ht_flareViewer.transform, targetNode.z0); display("projected position AFTER drag:", posAfter); display("did it move?", posBefore.re !== posAfter.re || posBefore.im !== posAfter.im);3c:T17aa,// FOUND THE BUG: each render() recreates a brand-new

Try clicking around in the viewer above — each click should now glide the clicked node (and its whole neighborhood) into focus.

Here's how it works: 1. **Root is exempted from culling** — while every other node gets dropped once it's too close to the boundary (or beyond the render budget), the root is always computed and drawn separately. 2. **Position clamping** — if the root's true hyperbolic position would fall outside a safety radius (0.95, just inside the dashed boundary circle), its rendered position is scaled down along the same angle/direction to sit right at that radius — so it "pins" to the edge in the correct direction rather than disappearing. 3. **Visual distinction** — the root now renders as a **larger dot (r=8) with a black outline**, always labeled in bold, so it's instantly recognizable as the fixed landmark versus regular nodes. 4. **Status hint** — the subtitle appends **"root pinned at edge →"** whenever you've wandered far enough that clamping kicks in, telling you it's no longer at its "true" position but still points you in the right direction. 5. **New "Go to root" button** — lets you animate straight back to center at any time, independent of "Reset view" (which returns to the *original* identity transform — subtly different if you want "root-centered" vs "exactly where I started"). 6. Stress-tested with 25 compounded zoom-ins toward an arbitrary point: even when **every other node was culled off-screen**, the root stayed correctly clamped and visible as your only anchor. Try it above — drag or scroll far away and you'll always see that black-ringed **"flare"** node somewhere in view, even at the very edge. Want me to also add a thin **directional line/arrow** from the disk center to the pinned root (like a compass needle) to make "which way is home" even more obvious at a glance?47:T4e0,display(md` # Hyperbolic Tree Viewer — Documentation An interactive **focus + context** tree browser rendered with Observable Plot, using true hyperbolic (Poincaré disk) geometry for layout and navigation — in the tradition of Lamping & Rao's classic "hyperbolic browser" (Xerox PARC, 1995). ## Concepts - **Poincaré disk model.** The entire (infinite) tree is mapped into a unit disk. Points near the center appear large and well-spaced ("focus"); points near the boundary are compressed but still present ("context"). No point ever reaches the boundary — it represents hyperbolic infinity. - **Möbius transforms as navigation.** Panning, zooming, and click-to-focus are all implemented as elements of **PSU(1,1)**, the isometry group of the disk. This is why navigation feels "infinite": you can never run out of space, and every view is a mathematically valid re-projection of the *same* underlying tree — nothing is ever recomputed or re-laid-out. - **Focus + context.** Because Möbius transforms are conformal, moving a node to the center doesn't just translate it — it locally *expands* the space around it (revealing more detail) while compressing everything else toward the edge (preserving overview). `);48:Tc5f,display(md` ## Architecture The implementation has three independent layers: ### 1. Math layer — SU(1,1) Möbius transforms A set of small pure functions operating on complex numbers (\`{re, im}\`) and 2×2 matrices of the form \`{a, b}\` representing \`z ↦ (az+b)/(b̄z+ā)\` with the constraint \`|a|²−|b|²=1\`. | Function | Purpose | |---|---| | \`ht_apply(M, z)\` | Apply transform \`M\` to point \`z\` | | \`ht_composeAfter(M2, M1)\` | Compose: apply \`M1\` then \`M2\` | | \`ht_translateTo(p)\` | Transform sending \`0 → p\` | | \`ht_translateFrom(f)\` | Transform sending \`f → 0\` (used for click-to-focus) | | \`ht_normalize(M)\` | Re-enforces \`|a|²−|b|²=1\` to correct floating-point drift | | \`ht_lerpM(M0, M1, t)\` | Smooth interpolation between two transforms (for animation) | All navigation (drag, scroll, click) works by composing small incremental transforms onto one persistent state variable \`M\`, rather than recomputing any layout. ### 2. Layout layer — \`ht_layout(root, options)\` Takes a **[d3.hierarchy](https://d3js.org/d3-hierarchy)** root (built by *you*, see below) and computes a static "world" position \`z0\` for every node, once: 1. \`d3.tree()\` assigns each node a radial angle and depth (a standard radial tree layout). 2. Depth is compressed with \`tanh\` so deeper nodes crowd toward the disk boundary: \`r = tanh(k · depth / maxDepth)\`. 3. The resulting \`{re, im}\` is stored as \`node.z0\`. \`\`\`js function ht_layout(root, { k = 2.2 } = {}) { /* ... */ return root.descendants(); } \`\`\` | Option | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | \`k\` | \`2.2\` | Compression constant. Higher = more nodes pushed toward the edge (more "context", less "focus" spread). | Returns a flat array of nodes (\`root.descendants()\`), each now carrying a \`.z0\` property. **This is computed once** and reused for every frame — it's why the viewer stays fast even for large trees (layout is O(n), independent of how much you pan/zoom afterward). ### 3. Viewer layer — \`ht_viewer4(nodes, options)\` Takes the array returned by \`ht_layout\` and returns a live, interactive DOM element. Each frame: 1. Projects every node through the current transform \`M\` (\`ht_apply(M, n.z0)\`). 2. **Culls** points too close to the boundary (invisible anyway) and caps the total to \`renderBudget\` (keeping only those closest to the current focus) — this is what makes it scale to arbitrarily large trees at constant per-frame cost. 3. **Pins the root**: it's always included and, if pushed past \`rootClampR\`, is clamped back onto the visible disk (same angle, smaller radius) so you never lose your anchor. 4. Renders with \`Plot.link\` (edges) + \`Plot.dot\` (nodes) + \`Plot.text\` (labels near focus). 5. Draws a dashed boundary circle and re-binds interaction calibration. Interaction listeners (\`pointerdown/move/up\`, \`wheel\`) are attached **once** to the *outer container* (not the inner \`

You build that root from your data first, *then* pass it to \`ht_layout\`. There are two common shapes your source data can be in: ### Shape A — Already nested (JSON tree with \`children\` arrays) If your data already looks like a tree: \`\`\`json { "name": "CEO", "children": [ { "name": "VP Engineering", "children": [ { "name": "Engineer A" }, { "name": "Engineer B" } ]}, { "name": "VP Sales", "children": [ { "name": "Sales Rep A" } ]} ] } \`\`\` use **\`d3.hierarchy\`** directly — no conversion needed: \`\`\`js const root = d3.hierarchy(myNestedData); // .children is the default accessor const nodes = ht_layout(root, { k: 2.2 }); const viewer = ht_viewer4(nodes, { label: (d) => d.data.name, // <- point this at whatever field holds your label title: "My Org Chart" }); display(viewer.element); \`\`\` ### Shape B — Flat table (rows with an id + a parent reference) This is the more common real-world case — e.g. a CSV export, a database table, or file paths. Each row needs **a unique id** and **a reference to its parent's id** (or \`null\`/ missing for the root). Two typical flavors: **B1. Explicit parent-id column** | id | parentId | name | |---|---|---| | 1 | | CEO | | 2 | 1 | VP Engineering | | 3 | 2 | Engineer A | | 4 | 2 | Engineer B | | 5 | 1 | VP Sales | \`\`\`js const root = d3.stratify() .id((d) => d.id) .parentId((d) => d.parentId || null) (myFlatRows); const nodes = ht_layout(root, { k: 2.2 }); const viewer = ht_viewer4(nodes, { label: (d) => d.data.name }); \`\`\` **B2. Dotted path names (no separate id/parentId column)** — this is what the built-in \`flare\` example uses: \`"flare.util.Strings"\` implies its parent is \`"flare.util"\`. \`\`\`js const root = d3.stratify() .id((d) => d.name) .parentId((d) => d.name.includes(".") ? d.name.slice(0, d.name.lastIndexOf(".")) : null) (myFlatRows); // rows need a unique dotted "name" field const nodes = ht_layout(root, { k: 2.2 }); const viewer = ht_viewer4(nodes, { label: (d) => d.data.name }); \`\`\` The same pattern works for file paths (split on \`"/"\` instead of \`"."\`) or any other delimiter-based hierarchy. ### Requirements & gotchas - **Every id must be unique.** \`d3.stratify\` throws if two rows share an id. - **Exactly one root.** Every row's parent chain must terminate at a single row with a \`null\`/missing \`parentId\` (or an implicit root, e.g. a name with no dot). If you have multiple disconnected trees, wrap them under a synthetic root row first. - **No cycles.** A row can't (directly or transitively) be its own ancestor. - **The \`label\` option must match your fields.** The default tries \`d.data.name\` then \`d.data.id\`; if your field is called something else (e.g. \`d.data.title\`), pass your own function — this also controls the color grouping (by top-level ancestor) and the tooltip text. ### Loading data from a file In Observable, load your file first in its own cell, then build the hierarchy in a second cell: \`\`\`js const rows = await FileAttachment("org-chart.csv").csv({typed: true}); \`\`\` \`\`\`js const root = d3.stratify().id(d => d.id).parentId(d => d.parentId || null)(rows); const nodes = ht_layout(root, { k: 2.2 }); const viewer = ht_viewer4(nodes, { label: d => d.data.name, title: "Org Chart" }); display(viewer.element); \`\`\` ### Tuning for size | Tree size | Suggested \`renderBudget\` | |---|---| | < 500 nodes | \`600\` (default — shows everything) | | 1,000 – 10,000 | \`400\`–\`600\` | | 10,000+ | \`200\`–\`400\` (keeps every frame under ~2ms regardless of total size) | The static layout step (\`ht_layout\`) itself is O(n) and fast even for tens of thousands of nodes (≈4ms for 8,000 nodes in testing) — the budget only affects *rendering*, not layout, so it's safe to lower without losing any underlying data. `);4b:T5ad,I've added full documentation above, organized into these sections: 1. **Concepts** — what the Poincaré disk model is and why Möbius transforms give you genuinely infinite pan/zoom 2. **Architecture** — the three layers (math primitives → static layout → interactive viewer) and how they fit together, including the pointer-capture bug we found and fixed 3. **API Reference** — full parameter tables for `ht_layout` and `ht_viewer4`, plus the returned methods (`reset`, `goToRoot`, `transform`) 4. **Formatting Your Own Data** (the part you asked for) — covers both data shapes you'll typically encounter: - **Shape A**: already-nested JSON (`{name, children: [...]}`) → use `d3.hierarchy` directly - **Shape B**: flat tables (CSV/database rows) → use `d3.stratify`, with two sub-recipes (explicit `id`/`parentId` columns, or dotted path names like the `flare` example) - Requirements (unique ids, single root, no cycles), how to point `label` at your own field names, loading from `FileAttachment`, and a sizing guide for tuning `renderBudget` 5. **Worked Example** — a complete, runnable 10-row org chart proving the documented recipe actually works, live above 6. **Quick Reference Card** — a copy-pasteable minimal template Want me to also export this as a standalone Markdown file (e.g., a `README.md` you could download/attach), or add a section covering the animation/pinning internals in more mathematical depth?4c:[] 2d:{"id":"f3102e98d4ed8bff","slug":"hyperbolic-tree-viewer-documentation","title":"Hyperbolic tree viewer documentation","thumbnail":"acfe46fe821d2b1e5216ce6704e6ab8c7832da66fad4463c3bf15ff9cb2129ae","access_level":"public","create_time":"$D2026-09-03T13:46:14.018Z","update_time":"$D2026-09-19T15:13:37.529Z","view_time":null,"first_public_time":"$D2026-09-03T13:53:46.617Z","has_unpublished_edits":null,"fork":true,"stars":1,"starred":false,"owner":{"type":"team","id":"11bfeb572ddbe905","login":"ambassadors","name":"Observable Ambassadors","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/93bf798c058a2bf8d3bb90c0754f774b6278b8b16748784f520b07a8800ef772","tier":"pro_2024"},"version":409,"publish_version":409,"role":null,"authored":false,"authors":[{"type":"individual","id":"9ba5e0b68d3e7972","login":"ee2dev","name":"","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/c41b514d64cff7415ffc87106c620e16cefe80b6d853fb3a05e19a000c3612c0","tier":null}],"members":[{"type":"team","id":"11bfeb572ddbe905","login":"ambassadors","name":"Observable Ambassadors","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/93bf798c058a2bf8d3bb90c0754f774b6278b8b16748784f520b07a8800ef772","tier":"pro_2024","role":"editor"}],"comments":[],"custom_thumbnail":false,"trashed":false,"lapsed":null,"subscribed":null,"forks":2,"collection":null,"type":"notebook","body":{"title":"Hyperbolic tree viewer documentation","cells":[{"id":1,"value":"hello","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"md","author":"user","summary":"$undefined","output":"$undefined","database":"$undefined"},{"id":2,"value":"Hello! 👋 Welcome to Observable.
