Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Projective Vector Algebra: An Algebra of Vectors Independent of the Axioms of Congruence and of Parallels I. The reader will find in the widely known memoir of Hilbert on the Foundations of Geometry* various 'algebras of segments,' independent of one or of another group of axioms, the purpose of these algebras being, in Hilbert's case, to show the mutual independence of his set of axioms. More recently, in an excellent book, Schur has taken up von Staudt's calculus of projective segments (Wurfrechnung) in order to develop it analytically and to build upon it a complete system of metrical, euclidean and non-euclidean, geometry. This is admirably done in 4 and 5 of his work. Schur bases his definitions of equality, of addition and multiplication of projective segments, upon the correspondence known as 'prospectivity,' and, at first, avails himself only of the axioms of connection and of order [Schur's postulates I. to 8.]; for the further development of the subject, however, he has recourse [5] to the axioms of congruence or of 'motion,' postulates 9. to 13., and completes his investigation by adding an independent, 14th postulate concerning the use of compasses. The result is a most charming and lucid structure of the complete system of non-euclidean geometry (of an isotropic three-dimensional space of any constant curvature), the last touch to this true masterpiece being given in Schur's closing section by adding the archimedean postulate.

Download or read book Vector Bundles on Complex Projective Spaces written by Christian Okonek and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These lecture notes are intended as an introduction to the methods of classification of holomorphic vector bundles over projective algebraic manifolds X. To be as concrete as possible we have mostly restricted ourselves to the case X = Fn. According to Serre (GAGA) the classification of holomorphic vector bundles is equivalent to the classification of algebraic vector bundles. Here we have used almost exclusively the language of analytic geometry. The book is intended for students who have a basic knowledge of analytic and (or) algebraic geometry. Some funda mental results from these fields are summarized at the beginning. One of the authors gave a survey in the Seminaire Bourbaki 1978 on the current state of the classification of holomorphic vector bundles overFn. This lecture then served as the basis for a course of lectures in Gottingen in the Winter Semester 78/79. The present work is an extended and up-dated exposition of that course. Because of the introductory nature of this book we have had to leave out some difficult topics such as the restriction theorem of Barth. As compensation we have appended to each sec tion a paragraph in which historical remarks are made, further results indicated and unsolved problems presented. The book is divided into two chapters. Each chapter is subdivided into several sections which in turn are made up of a number of paragraphs. Each section is preceeded by a short description of iv its contents.

Download or read book Geometric Algebra for Computer Science written by Leo Dorst and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-07-26 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until recently, almost all of the interactions between objects in virtual 3D worlds have been based on calculations performed using linear algebra. Linear algebra relies heavily on coordinates, however, which can make many geometric programming tasks very specific and complex-often a lot of effort is required to bring about even modest performance enhancements. Although linear algebra is an efficient way to specify low-level computations, it is not a suitable high-level language for geometric programming. Geometric Algebra for Computer Science presents a compelling alternative to the limitations of linear algebra. Geometric algebra, or GA, is a compact, time-effective, and performance-enhancing way to represent the geometry of 3D objects in computer programs. In this book you will find an introduction to GA that will give you a strong grasp of its relationship to linear algebra and its significance for your work. You will learn how to use GA to represent objects and perform geometric operations on them. And you will begin mastering proven techniques for making GA an integral part of your applications in a way that simplifies your code without slowing it down. * The first book on Geometric Algebra for programmers in computer graphics and entertainment computing * Written by leaders in the field providing essential information on this new technique for 3D graphics * This full colour book includes a website with GAViewer, a program to experiment with GA

Download or read book Perspectives on Projective Geometry written by Jürgen Richter-Gebert and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-04 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Projective geometry is one of the most fundamental and at the same time most beautiful branches of geometry. It can be considered the common foundation of many other geometric disciplines like Euclidean geometry, hyperbolic and elliptic geometry or even relativistic space-time geometry. This book offers a comprehensive introduction to this fascinating field and its applications. In particular, it explains how metric concepts may be best understood in projective terms. One of the major themes that appears throughout this book is the beauty of the interplay between geometry, algebra and combinatorics. This book can especially be used as a guide that explains how geometric objects and operations may be most elegantly expressed in algebraic terms, making it a valuable resource for mathematicians, as well as for computer scientists and physicists. The book is based on the author’s experience in implementing geometric software and includes hundreds of high-quality illustrations.

Download or read book Projective Geometry written by H.S.M. Coxeter and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-10-09 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Euclidean geometry, constructions are made with ruler and compass. Projective geometry is simpler: its constructions require only a ruler. In projective geometry one never measures anything, instead, one relates one set of points to another by a projectivity. The first two chapters of this book introduce the important concepts of the subject and provide the logical foundations. The third and fourth chapters introduce the famous theorems of Desargues and Pappus. Chapters 5 and 6 make use of projectivities on a line and plane, respectively. The next three chapters develop a self-contained account of von Staudt's approach to the theory of conics. The modern approach used in that development is exploited in Chapter 10, which deals with the simplest finite geometry that is rich enough to illustrate all the theorems nontrivially. The concluding chapters show the connections among projective, Euclidean, and analytic geometry.

Download or read book Elementary Geometry of Algebraic Curves written by C. G. Gibson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-11-26 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an introduction to plane algebraic curves from a geometric viewpoint, designed as a first text for undergraduates in mathematics, or for postgraduate and research workers in the engineering and physical sciences. The book is well illustrated and contains several hundred worked examples and exercises. From the familiar lines and conics of elementary geometry the reader proceeds to general curves in the real affine plane, with excursions to more general fields to illustrate applications, such as number theory. By adding points at infinity the affine plane is extended to the projective plane, yielding a natural setting for curves and providing a flood of illumination into the underlying geometry. A minimal amount of algebra leads to the famous theorem of Bezout, while the ideas of linear systems are used to discuss the classical group structure on the cubic.
