Title Classical geometries in modern contexts : geometry of real inner product spaces / Walter Benz
Published Basel ; Boston : Birkhäuser Verlag, ©2005

Copies

Description 1 online resource (xii, 242 pages)
Contents 1. Translation groups -- 2. Euclidean and hyperbolic geometry -- 3. Sphere geometries of Mobius and Lie -- 4. Lorentz transformations
Summary Presents the real inner product spaces of arbitrary (finite or infinite) dimension greater than or equal to 2. This book studies the sphere geometries of Mobius and Lie for these spaces, besides euclidean and hyperbolic geometry, as well as geometries where Lorentz transformations play the key role
