The projective plane over K, denoted PG(2, K) or KP 2, has a set of points consisting of all the 1-dimensional subspaces in K 3. A subset L of the points of PG(2, K) is a line in PG(2, K) if there exists a 2-dimensional subspace of K 3 whose set of 1-dimensional subspaces is exactly L.
In chemistry, the Natta projection ... stereochemistry in two dimensions in a skeletal formula. ... is in the paper plane (chemical bonds depicted as ...
In chemistry, the Fischer projection, devised by Emil Fischer in 1891, is a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional organic molecule by projection. Fischer projections were originally proposed for the depiction of carbohydrates and used by chemists, particularly in organic chemistry and biochemistry .
A plane duality is a map from a projective plane C = (P, L, I) to its dual plane C ∗ = (L, P, I ∗) (see § Principle of duality above) which preserves incidence. That is, a plane duality σ will map points to lines and lines to points ( P σ = L and L σ = P ) in such a way that if a point Q is on a line m (denoted by Q I m ) then Q I m ⇔ ...
A two-dimensional representation of the Klein bottle immersed in three-dimensional space. In mathematics, the Klein bottle (/ ˈ k l aɪ n /) is an example of a non-orientable surface; that is, informally, a one-sided surface which, if traveled upon, could be followed back to the point of origin while flipping the traveler upside down.
Projective geometry is not necessarily concerned with curvature and the real projective plane may be twisted up and placed in the Euclidean plane or 3-space in many different ways. [1] Some of the more important examples are described below. The projective plane cannot be embedded (that is without intersection) in three-dimensional Euclidean space.
[b] Another example is the genus–degree formula that allows computing the genus of a plane algebraic curve from its singularities in the complex projective plane. So a projective variety is the set of points in a projective space, whose homogeneous coordinates are common zeros of a set of homogeneous polynomials. [c]
The Betti numbers of the complex projective plane are 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, ..... The middle dimension 2 is accounted for by the homology class of the complex projective line, or Riemann sphere, lying in the plane. The nontrivial homotopy groups of the complex projective plane are = =. The fundamental group is trivial and all other higher ...
