An Introduction To Projective Geometry (1908)

By Louis Napoleon George Filon

Book Overview

""An Introduction to Projective Geometry"" is a book written by Louis Napoleon George Filon and first published in 1908. The book provides a comprehensive introduction to projective geometry, a branch of mathematics that deals with the properties and invariants of figures that are preserved under projection. The book begins with an overview of the basic concepts of projective geometry, including points, lines, and planes, and their properties. It then explores the various types of projections, such as central and parallel projections, and their properties. The book also covers conic sections, duality, and the relationship between projective and Euclidean geometry. Throughout the book, Filon provides numerous examples and illustrations to help readers understand the concepts and applications of projective geometry. The book is aimed at students and mathematicians interested in geometry, and assumes a basic knowledge of algebra and geometry. Overall, ""An Introduction to Projective Geometry"" is a classic text in the field of mathematics, and remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in this fascinating branch of geometry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
