It is intended to complement the introductory expositions of the theory of affine and projective planes. A novelty of our exposition is a new notation for the ternary operation in a ternary ring, much more suggestive than the standard one.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-04-18T00:20:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "51E15", "51A35", "12K99" ], "keywords": [ "affine planes", "non-desarguesian planes", "ternary ring", "introductory expositions", "ternary operation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 25, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
