Plane (mathematics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1084 words)
In mathematics, a plane is a fundamental two-dimensional object.
The topological plane, or its equivalent the open disc, is the basic topological neighbourhood used to construct surfaces (or 2-manifolds) classified in low-dimensional topology.
The topological plane is the natural context for the branch of graph theory that deals with planar graphs, and results such as the four color theorem.
Encyclopedia4U - Projective plane - Encyclopedia Article (550 words)
It is easy to check that it obeys the rules required of projective planes: any pair of distinct great circles meet at a pair of antipodal points, and any two distinct pairs of antipodal points lie on a single great circle.
In this representation of the Fano plane, the seven points are shown as small blobs, and the seven lines are shown as six line segments and a circle.
The definition of projective plane by incidence properties is something special to two dimensions: in general projective space is defined via linear algebra.
