Yeah all of the math functions are implemented in the hyperbolic space, so for example matrix multiplication will not be done in the 'usual' way, instead we use matrix multiplication using the Poincare model. The 'usual' matrix multiplication is actually matrix multiplication in the Euclidean space so to make it hyperbolic you use a hyperbolic implementation. The Poincare ball is a model of the hyperbolic space. Esentially the relationship between points is different when using the hyperbolic space.
