1	Projective Geometry: An Introduction more books like this by Rey Casse add to wishlist This lucid and accessible text provides an introductory guide to projective geometry, an area of mathematics concerned with the properties and invariants of geometric figures under projection. Including numerous worked examples and exercises throughout, the book covers axiomatic geometry, field planes and PG(r, F), coordinatising a projective ... see all copies from $35.00! new only from $35.00! \| first editions \| SVS
2	Multiple View Geometry in Computer Vision more books like this by Richard Hartley, Andrew Zisserman add to wishlist A basic problem in computer vision is to understand the structure of a real world scene given several images of it. Techniques for solving this problem are taken from projective geometry and photogrammetry. Here, the authors cover the geometric principles and their algebraic representation in terms of camera projection matrices, the fundamental ... see all copies from $77.70! new only from $87.62! \| first editions \| SVS
3	Projective Geometry more books like this by H S M Coxeter add to wishlist 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 ... see all copies from $14.75! new only from $32.86! \| first editions \| SVS
4	Geometry and Symmetry more books like this by Paul B Yale add to wishlist Designed for advanced undergraduate mathematics or physics courses, this volume focuses on "practical geometry," emphasizing topics and techniques of maximal use in all areas of mathematics. 1968 edition. see all copies from $5.80! new only from $29.95! \| first editions
5	Projective geometry and projective metrics more books like this by Herbert Busemann, Paul J Kelly add to wishlist Geometers value basic results as much as they do the methods of projective and non-Euclidean geometry. This book emphasizes that fact, taking a non-traditional approach. Topics include the projective plane, polarities and conic sections, affine geometry, projective metrics, and non-Euclidean and spatial geometry. Includes numerous figures. 1953 ... see all copies from $5.88! new only from $10.75! \| first editions \| SVS
6	Continuous geometry. more books like this by John Von Neumann add to wishlist In his work on rings of operators in Hilbert space, John von Neumann discovered a new mathematical structure that resembled the lattice system Ln. In characterizing its properties, von Neumann founded the field of continuous geometry. This book, based on von Neumann's lecture notes, begins with the development of the axioms of continuous geometry, ... see all copies from $9.85! new only from $68.86! \| first editions \| SVS
7	The Vortex of Life: Nature's Patterns in Space and Time more books like this by Lawrence Edwards add to wishlist Building on his earlier research Lawrence Edwards examines the influence of celestial motion on the form of plants, embryos, and the heart. His statistical analysis of bud shapes, begun in the 1960s, leads him to suggest that all living forms are affected by patterns in time as well as space, with all of life and nature passing through vast cycles ... see all copies from $22.22! new only from $34.00! \| first editions \| SVS
8	Algorithms in Invariant Theory more books like this by Bernd Sturmfels add to wishlist J. Kung and G.-C. Rota, in their 1984 paper, write: "Like the Arabian phoenix rising out of its ashes, the theory of invariants, pronounced dead at the turn of the century, is once again at the forefront of mathematics". The book of Sturmfels is both an easy-to-read textbook for invariant theory and a challenging research monograph that introduces ... see all copies from $43.70! new only from $43.70! \| first editions \| SVS
9	Lectures in Projective Geometry more books like this by Abraham Seidenberg add to wishlist This volume serves as an extension of high school-level studies of geometry and algebra, and proceeds to more advanced topics with an axiomatic approach. Includes an introductory chapter on projective geometry, then explores the relations between the basic theorems; higher-dimensional space; conics; coordinate systems and linear transformations; ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $8.09! \| first editions \| SVS
10	Linear Algebra and Projective Geometry more books like this by Reinhold Baer add to wishlist Geared toward upper-level undergraduates and graduate students, this text establishes that projective geometry and linear algebra are essentially identical. The supporting evidence consists of theorems offering an algebraic demonstration of certain geometric concepts. These theorems lead to a reconstruction of the geometry that constituted the ... see all copies from $7.70! new only from $7.99! \| first editions \| SVS
11 view cover	Generalized Clifford Parallelism more books like this by J A Tyrrell, J G Semple add to wishlist The authors of this tract present a treatment of generalised Clifford parallelism within the framework of complex projective geometry. After a brief survey of the necessary preliminary material, the principal properties of systems of mutually Clifford parallel spaces are developed, centred round discussion of an extended form of the Hurwitz - ... see all copies from $17.50! new only from $25.65! \| SVS

14 view cover	Projective and Cayley-Klein Geometries more books like this by Arkadij L Onishchik, Rolf Sulanke add to wishlist Projective geometry, and the Cayley-Klein geometries embedded into it, were originated in the 19th century. It is one of the foundations of algebraic geometry and has many applications to differential geometry. The book presents a systematic introduction to projective geometry as based on the notion of vector space, which is the central topic of ... see all copies from $99.08! new only from $100.99! \| first editions \| SVS

Of the four geometries, one is based on a nine-element field and the other three can be constructed from the nine-element 'miniquaternion algebra', a simple system which has many though not all the properties of a field. The three systems ... see all copies from $21.10! new only from $32.40! \| SVS
17	Episodes in 19 & 20c Euclidean more books like this by Ross Honsberger add to wishlist Professor Honsberger has succeeded in 'finding' and 'extricating' unexpected and little known properties of such fundamental figures as triangles, results that deserve to be better known. He has laid the foundations for his proofs with almost entirely synthetic methods easily accessible to students of Euclidean geometry early on. While in most of ... see all copies from $15.87! new only from $39.67!
