Collineations and Conic Sections
An Introduction to Projective Geometry in its History
AvChristopher Baltus
Inbunden, Engelska, 2020
563 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This volume combines an introduction to central collineations with an introduction to projective geometry, set in its historical context and aiming to provide the reader with a general history through the middle of the nineteenth century. Topics covered include but are not limited to:The Projective Plane and Central CollineationsThe Geometry of Euclid's ElementsConic Sections in Early Modern EuropeApplications of Conics in HistoryWith rare exception, the only prior knowledge required is a background in high school geometry. As a proof-based treatment, this monograph will be of interest to those who enjoy logical thinking, and could also be used in a geometry course that emphasizes projective geometry.

Geometry by Its Transformations
Lessons Centered on the History from 1800-1855
AvChristopher Baltus
Häftad, Engelska, 2025
509 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This textbook combines the history of synthetic geometry, centered on the years 1800-1855, with a theorem-proof exposition of the geometry developed in those years. The book starts with the background needed from Euclid’s Elements, followed by chapters on transformations, including dilation (similitude), homology, homogeneous coordinates, projective geometry, inversion, the Möbius transformation, and transformation geometry as in French schoolbooks of 1910. Projective geometry is presented by tracing its path through the work of J. V. Poncelet, J. Steiner, and K. G. C. von Staudt. Extensive exercises are included, many from the period studied. The prerequisites for approaching this course are knowledge of high school geometry and enthusiasm for mathematical demonstration.This textbook is ideal for a college geometry course, for self-study, or as preparation for the study of modern geometry.
