The Fano plane is the projective plane with the fewest points and lines. The smallest 2-dimensional projective geometry (that with the fewest points) is the Fano plane, which has 3 points on every line, with 7 points and 7 lines in all, having the following collinearities:
Castelnuovo's theorem implies that to construct a minimal model for a smooth surface, we simply contract all the −1-curves on the surface, and the resulting variety Y is either a (unique) minimal model with K nef, or a ruled surface (which is the same as a 2-dimensional Fano fiber space, and is either a projective plane or a ruled surface ...
The projective plane over K, denoted PG(2, K) or KP 2, has a set of points consisting of all the 1-dimensional subspaces in K 3. A subset L of the points of PG(2, K ) is a line in PG(2, K ) if there exists a 2-dimensional subspace of K 3 whose set of 1-dimensional subspaces is exactly L .
The quotient map from the sphere onto the real projective plane is in fact a two sheeted (i.e. two-to-one) covering map. It follows that the fundamental group of the real projective plane is the cyclic group of order 2; i.e., integers modulo 2.
The p-hosohedron is a regular map of type {2,p}. The Dyck map is a regular map of 12 octagons on a genus-3 surface. Its underlying graph, the Dyck graph, can also form a regular map of 16 hexagons in a torus. The following is a complete list of regular maps in surfaces of positive Euler characteristic, χ: the sphere and the projective plane. [2]
The projective general linear group of order +, of projective transformations, is contained in the Cremona group of order . The two are equal only when n = 0 {\displaystyle n=0} or n = 1 {\displaystyle n=1} , in which case both the numerator and the denominator of a transformation must be linear.
A two-dimensional representation of the Klein bottle immersed in three-dimensional space. In mathematics, the Klein bottle (/ ˈ k l aɪ n /) is an example of a non-orientable surface; that is, informally, a one-sided surface which, if traveled upon, could be followed back to the point of origin while flipping the traveler upside down.
A two-dimensional complex space – such as the two-dimensional complex coordinate space, the complex projective plane, or a complex surface – has two complex dimensions, which can alternately be represented using four real dimensions. A two-dimensional lattice is an infinite grid of points which can be represented using integer coordinates.
