Smooth projective plane

In geometry, smooth projective planes are special projective planes. The most prominent example of a smooth projective plane is the real projective plane . Its geometric operations of joining two distinct points by a line and of intersecting two lines in a point are not only continuous but even smooth (infinitely differentiable ). Similarly, the classical planes over the complex numbers, the quaternions, and the octonions are smooth planes. However, these are not the only such planes. (Wikipedia).

Introduction to Projective Geometry (Part 2)

The second video in a series about projective geometry. We list the axioms for projective planes, give an examle of a projective plane with finitely many points, and define the real projective plane.

Hyperbola 3D Animation | Objective conic hyperbola | Digital Learning

Hyperbola 3D Animation In mathematics, a hyperbola is a type of smooth curve lying in a plane, defined by its geometric properties or by equations for which it is the solution set. A hyperbola has two pieces, called connected components or branches, that are mirror images of each other an

Projective view of conics and quadrics | Differential Geometry 9 | NJ Wildberger

In this video we introduce projective geometry into the study of conics and quadrics. Our point of view follows Mobius and Plucker: the projective plane is considered as the space of one-dimensional subspaces of a three dimensional vector space, or in other words lines through the origin.

MATH331: Riemann Surfaces - part 1

We define what a Riemann Surface is. We show that PP^1 is a Riemann surface an then interpret our crazy looking conditions from a previous video about "holomorphicity at infinity" as coming from the definition of a Riemann Surface.
