On a family of pseudohyperbolic disks

Abstract: Hyperbolic geometry plays an important role within function theory of the disk. For example, via the Schwarz-Pick Lemma, the isometries of the unit disk $\mathbb D$ with respect to this geometry are the conformal self-maps of $\mathbb D$. In this elementary classroom note, we are interested in the collection of the pseudohyperbolic disks $D_\rho(x,r)$ (with fixed radius $r$ and variable hyperbolic centers $-1<x<1$) and determine explicitely with function theoretic tools the enveloppe of these disks.
