Algebraic geometry of projective spaces

Projective space plays a central role in algebraic geometry. The aim of this article is to define the notion in terms of abstract algebraic geometry and to describe some basic uses of projective space. (Wikipedia).

BAG2.1. Projective Toric Varieties - Part 1

Basic Algebraic Geometry: We define complex projective space, projective varieties, and projective toric varieties. For PTVs, we identify the character lattice and lattice of one-parameter subgroups.

Projective Coordinates for Points and Lines | Algebraic Calculus One | Wild Egg and Anna Tomskova

Dr Anna Tomskova explains a more modern framework for projective geometry where the extra coordinate often associated with infinity is the first coordinate in a projective vector. This gives us a uniform way to associate to affine points and lines projective points and lines, with the adva

algebraic geometry 29 Automorphisms of space

This lecture is part of an online algebraic geometry course, based on chapter I of "Algebraic geometry" by Hartshorne. It describes the automorphisms of affine and projective space, and gives a brief discussion of the Jacobian conjecture.

Isometry groups of the projective line (I) | Rational Geometry Math Foundations 138 | NJ Wildberger

The projective line can be given a Euclidean structure, just as the affine line can, but it is a bit more complicated. The algebraic structure of this projective line supports some symmetries. Symmetry in mathematics is often most efficiently encoded with the idea of a group--a technical t

algebraic geometry 17 Affine and projective varieties

This lecture is part of an online algebraic geometry course, based on chapter I of "Algebraic geometry" by Hartshorne. It covers the relation between affine and projective varieties, with some examples such as a cubic curve and the twisted cubic.

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.

An Intuitive Introduction to Projective Geometry Using Linear Algebra

This is an area of math that I've wanted to talk about for a long time, especially since I have found how projective geometry can be used to formulate Euclidean, spherical, and hyperbolic geometries, and a possible (and hopefully plausible) way projective geometry (specifically the model t
