Projective spaces on partially ordered sets and Desargues' postulate

1991

We introduce a generalized concept of projective and Desarguean space where points (and lines) may be of different size. Every unitary module yields an example when we take the 1-and 2-generated submodules as points and lines. In this paper we develop a method of constructing a wide range of projective and Desarguean spaces by means of lattices.

A unified approach to projective lattice geometries

1992

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.

Embedding Locally Projective Planar Spaces Into Projective Spaces

1988

We shall show that a 3-dimensional locally projective planar space of finite order n can be embedded into a 3-dimensional projective space of order n, if it has at least n 3 points.

Correction to ?partial spreads in finite projective spaces and partial designs?

Generically split projective homogeneous varieties. II

2012

AbstractThis article gives a complete classification of generically split projective homogeneous varieties. This project was begun in our previous article [PS10], but here we remove all restrictions on the characteristic of the base field, give a new uniform proof that works in all cases and in particular includes the case PGO2n+ which was missing in [PS10].

Maps to Projective Space

2000

One of the main goals of algebraic geometry is to understand the geometry of smooth projective varieties. For instance, given a smooth projective surface X, we can ask a host of questions whose answers might help illuminate its geometry. What kinds of curves does the surface contain? Is it covered by rational curves, that is, curves birationally equivalent to ℙ1? If not, how many rational curves does it contain, and how do they intersect each other? Or is it more natural to think of the surface as a family of elliptic curves (genus-1 Riemann surfaces) or as some other family? Is the surface isomorphic to ℙ2 or some other familiar variety on a dense set? What other surfaces are birationally …
