Zur Hyperebenenalgebraisierung in desargues-Schen projektiven Verbandsgeometrien

As a completion and extension of a result of A. Day and D. Pickering [5] we obtain the following structure theorem in the conceptual frame of projective lattice geometries: In a Desarguesian projective geometry the subgeometry of every at least one-dimensional hyperplane is module induced.

On stable geometries

Within the concept of projective lattice geometry we are considering the class of stable geometries which have also been introduced in [14]. The investigation of their basic properties will result in fundamental structure theorems which especially give a lattice-geometric characterization of free left modules of rank ≥6 over proper right Bezout rings of stable rank 2. This yields a proper generalization of previous results of ours.

On Barbilian spaces in projective lattice geometries

We introduce the notion of a Barbilian space of a projective lattice geometry in order to investigate the relationship between lattice-geometric properties and the properties of point-hyperplane structures associated with. We obtain a characterization of those projective lattice geometries, the Barbilian space of which is a Veldkamp space.

On point-irreducible projective lattice geometries

Within the conceptual frame of projective lattice geometry (as introduced in [5]) we are considering the class of all point-irreducible geometries. In the algebraic context these geometries are closely connected with unitary modules over local rings. Besides several synthetic investigations we obtain a lattice-geometric characterization of free left modules over right chain rings which allows a purely lattice-theoretic version in the Artinian case.

Projective Geometry on Modular Lattices

Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on projective geometry on modular lattices. Incidence and Order are basic concepts for a foundation of modern synthetic geometry. These concepts describe the relative location or containment of geometric objects and have led to different lines of geometry, an incidence-geometric and a lattice-theoretic one. Modularity is one of the fundamental properties of classical projective geometry. It makes projections into join-preserving mappings and yields perspectivities to be (interval) isomorphisms. It is therefore natural that order-theoretic generalizations of projective geometry are based on modular lattices and even more, the theory of modular lattices …

A unified approach to projective lattice geometries

The interest in pursuing projective geometry on modules has led to several lattice theoretic generalizations of the classical synthetic concept of projective geometry on vector spaces.
