Affine Kettengeometrien �ber Jordanalgebren
1996
It is shown that an affine chain geometry over a Jordan algebra can be constructed in a nearly classical manner. Conversely, such chain geometries are characterized as systems of rational normal curves having a group of automorphisms with certain properties.
The coordinatization of affine planes by rings
1996
With every unitary free module of rank 2 there is naturally associated a generalized affine plane (e.g. the lines are just the cosets of all nonzero 1-generated submodules). Here we solve the converse problem by coordinatizing a given generalized affine plane which satisfies certain versions of Desargues' postulate.
On the algebraic representation of projectively embeddable affine geometries
1995
The main result of this article is an application of [1] and [2] which yields that an at least 2-dimensional affine geometry is module-induced if and only if it is projectively embeddable into an Arguesian projective lattice geometry.
An axiomatic treatment of ratios in an affine plane

On 2-(n^2,2n,2n-1) designs with three intersection numbers
2007
The simple incidence structure $${\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{A},2)}$$ , formed by the points and the unordered pairs of distinct parallel lines of a finite affine plane $${\mathcal{A}=(\mathcal{P}, \mathcal{L})}$$ of order n > 4, is a 2 --- (n 2,2n,2n---1) design with intersection numbers 0,4,n. In this paper, we show that the converse is true, when n ? 5 is an odd integer.
Invariants of unipotent groups
1987
I’ll give a survey on the known results on finite generation of invariants for nonreductive groups, and some conjectures. You know that Hilbert’s 14th problem is solved for the invariants of reductive groups; see [12] for a survey. So the general case reduces to the case of unipotent groups. But in this case there are only a few results, some negative and some positive. I assume that k is an infinite field, say the complex numbers, but in most instances an arbitrary ring would do it.
