Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foundations of Geometry This book is logically sound, and that consequently the more it is discussed and criticised, the more firmly will it become established. I shall therefore be very glad to see any criticisms of my views, whether friendly or hostile, either in the public press, or addressed to me privately, at the address given below. But I have already found that, the subject being such a wide one, criticism is apt to become discursive; and with a view to keeping it to the point I would suggest to my critics and opponents in argument that they should consider categorically the following questions.

Download or read book Foundations of Geometry written by David Hilbert and published by Open Court Publishing. This book was released on 1971 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Along with the writings of Hilbert's friend and correspondent Frege, Hilbert's Grundlagen der Geometrie is the major prop that set the stage for Russell and Whitehead's Principia Mathematica. Hilbert presents a new axiomatization of geometry, the reduction of geometry to algebra, and introduces the distinction between mathematics and metamathematics, with a new theory of proof. This edition is translated from the tenth German edition, including all the improvements which Hilbert derived from his own reflections and the contributions of other writers. --Back cover.
Download or read book Foundations of Geometry written by Karol Borsuk and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 2018-11-14 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Part One of this comprehensive and frequently cited treatment, the authors develop Euclidean and Bolyai-Lobachevskian geometry on the basis of an axiom system due, in principle, to the work of David Hilbert. Part Two develops projective geometry in much the same way. An Introduction provides background on topological space, analytic geometry, and other relevant topics, and rigorous proofs appear throughout the text. Topics covered by Part One include axioms of incidence and order, axioms of congruence, the axiom of continuity, models of absolute geometry, and Euclidean geometry, culminating in the treatment of Bolyai-Lobachevskian geometry. Part Two examines axioms of incidents and order and the axiom of continuity, concluding with an exploration of models of projective geometry.

Stout and Mr A. N. Whitehead for kindly reading my proofs, and helping me by many useful criticisms. To Mr Whitehead I owe, also, the inestimable assistance of constant criticism and suggestion throughout the course of construction, especially as regards the philosophical importance of projective Geometry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foundations of Mathematics: A Contribution to the Philosophy of Geometry I need not mention here perhaps, Since it is a fact of no consequence, that the readings of the several manuscripts vary, and that some proposi tions (e. G., that all right angles are equal to one another) are now missing, now counted among the postulates, and now adduced as common notions. The commentators of Euclid who did not under stand the difference between Postulates and Com mon Notions, spoke of both as axioms, and even to-day the term Common Notion is mostly so trans lated.

Download or read book The Foundations of Geometry and the Non Euclidean Plane written by G.E. Martin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a text for junior, senior, or first-year graduate courses traditionally titled Foundations of Geometry and/or Non Euclidean Geometry. The first 29 chapters are for a semester or year course on the foundations of geometry. The remaining chap ters may then be used for either a regular course or independent study courses. Another possibility, which is also especially suited for in-service teachers of high school geometry, is to survey the the fundamentals of absolute geometry (Chapters 1 -20) very quickly and begin earnest study with the theory of parallels and isometries (Chapters 21 -30). The text is self-contained, except that the elementary calculus is assumed for some parts of the material on advanced hyperbolic geometry (Chapters 31 -34). There are over 650 exercises, 30 of which are 10-part true-or-false questions. A rigorous ruler-and-protractor axiomatic development of the Euclidean and hyperbolic planes, including the classification of the isometries of these planes, is balanced by the discussion about this development. Models, such as Taxicab Geometry, are used exten sively to illustrate theory. Historical aspects and alternatives to the selected axioms are prominent. The classical axiom systems of Euclid and Hilbert are discussed, as are axiom systems for three and four-dimensional absolute geometry and Pieri's system based on rigid motions. The text is divided into three parts. The Introduction (Chapters 1 -4) is to be read as quickly as possible and then used for ref erence if necessary.

Book excerpt: Ideal for users who may have little previous experience with abstraction and proof, this book provides a rigorous and unified--yet straightforward and accessible --exposition of the foundations of Euclidean, hyperbolic, and spherical geometry. Unique in approach, it combines an extended theme--the study of a generalized absolute plane from axioms through classification into the three fundamental classical planes--with a leisurely development that allows ample time for mathematical growth. It is purposefully structured to facilitate the development of analytic and reasoning skills and to promote an awareness of the depth, power, and subtlety of the axiomatic method in general, and of Euclidean and non-Euclidean plane geometry in particular. Focus on one main topic--The axiomatic development of the absolute plane--which is pursued through a classification into Euclidean, hyperbolic, and spherical planes. Presents specific models such as the sphere, the Klein-Betrami hyperbolic model, and the "gap" plane. Gradually presents axioms for absolute plane geometry.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relation of the Principles of Logic to the Foundations of Geometry The fundamental ordinal relation of geometry is the relation which can be, at pleasure, described as the triadic relation between, or as an asymmetrical, transitive dyadic relation, such as before, or antecedent to, or sequent to. Essentially the same relation is at the root of all serial order, and on this basis the logic of such order has lately been elaborately discussed by Mr. Bertrand russell, in his Principles of Mathematics.

Some acquaint ance with Arithmetic and Algebra usually precedes its study; but the time necessarily employed in gaining a practical facility in the application of the rules of these branches, leaves little room for the cultivation of the reasoning faculties as they are exercised in Geometry.
