Download or read book Algebraical and Topological Foundations of Geometry written by Hans Freudenthal and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-09 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algebraical and Topological Foundations of Geometry contains the proceedings of the Colloquium on Algebraic and Topological Foundations of Geometry, held in Utrecht, the Netherlands in August 1959. The papers review the algebraical and topological foundations of geometry and cover topics ranging from the geometric algebra of the Möbius plane to the theory of parallels with applications to closed geodesies. Groups of homeomorphisms and topological descriptive planes are also discussed. Comprised of 26 chapters, this book introduces the reader to the theory of parallels with applications to closed geodesies; groups of homeomorphisms; complemented modular lattices; and topological descriptive planes. Subsequent chapters focus on collineation groups; exceptional algebras and exceptional groups; the connection between algebra and constructions with ruler and compasses; and the use of differential geometry and analytic group theory methods in foundations of geometry. Von Staudt projectivities of Moufang planes are also considered, and an axiomatic treatment of polar geometry is presented. This monograph will be of interest to students of mathematics.

Book excerpt: Based on the proceedings of the conference held at the University of Iowa, in honour and celebration of the mathematician T.G. Ostrom's 80th birthday, this text focuses on finite geometries as well as topological geometries in the infinite case, some of which originate with ideas of finite geometric objects. It includes information about flocks of quadratic cones and related geometric and combinatorial structures.

Download or read book Finite Geometries written by Peter Dembowski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Dembowski was born in Berlin on April 1, 1928. After studying mathematics at the University of Frankfurt of Main, he pursued his graduate studies at Brown Unviersity and the University of Illinois, mainly with R. Baer. Dembowski returned to Frankfurt in 1956. Shortly before his premature death in January 1971, he had been appointed to a chair at the University of Tuebingen. Dembowski taught at the universities of Frankfurt and Tuebingen and - as visiting Professor - in London (Queen Mary College), Rome, and Madison, WI. Dembowski's chief research interest lay in the connections between finite geometries and group theory. His book "Finite Geometries" brought together essentially all that was known at that time about finite geometrical structures, including key results of the author, in a unified and structured perspective. This book became a standard reference as soon as it appeared in 1968. It influenced the expansion of combinatorial geometric research, and left its trace also in neighbouring areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wir unterhielten uns einmal dariiber, daB man sich in einer fremden Sprache nur unfrei ausdriicken kann und im Zweifelsfall lieber das sagt, was man richtig und einwandfrei zu sagen hofft, als das, was man eigentlich sagen will. Molnar nickte bestatigend: "Es ist sehr traurig", resiimierte er. "Ich habe oft mitten im Satz meine Weltanschauung andem miissen ..." Friedrich Torberg, Die Tante Jolesch The last two decades have witnessed great progress in the theory of translation planes. Being interested in, and having worked a little on this subject, I felt the need to clarify for myself what had been happening in this area of mathematics. Thus I lectured about it for several semesters and, at the same time, I wrote what is now this book. It is my very personal view of the story, which means that I selected mainly those topics I had touched upon in my own investigations. Thus finite translation planes are the main the~ of the book. Infinite translation planes, however, are not completely disregarded. As all theory aims at the mastering of the examples, these play a central role in this book. I believe that this fact will be welcomed by many people. However, it is not a beginner's book of geometry. It presupposes consider able knowledge of projective planes and algebra, especially group theory. The books by Gorenstein, Hughes and Piper, Huppert, Passman, and Pickert mentioned in the bibliography will help to fill any gaps the reader may have.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The British Combinatorial Conference is held every two years and is a key event for mathematicians worldwide working in combinatorics. In June 2003 the conference was held at the University of Wales, Bangor. The papers contained here are surveys contributed by the invited speakers and are of the high quality that befits the event. There is also a tribute to Bill Tutte who had a long-standing association with the BCC. The papers cover topics currently attracting significant research interest as well as some less traditional areas such as the combinatorics of protecting digital content. They will form an excellent resource for established researchers as well as graduate students who will find much here to inspire future work.
