We discuss representations of the projective line over a ring $R$ with 1 in a projective space over some (not necessarily commutative) field $K$. Such a representation is based upon a $(K,R)$-bimodule $U$. The points of the projective line…

We give a survey on projective ring lines and some of their substructures which in turn are more general than a projective line over a ring.

In this article we introduce generalized projective spaces (Definitions $[2.1, 2.5]$) and prove three main theorems in two different contexts. In the first context we prove, in main Theorem $A$, the surjectivity of the Chinese remainder…

Projection matrices are necessary for a large portion of rendering computer graphics. There are primarily two different types of projection matrices -- perspective and orthographic -- which are used frequently, and are traditionally treated…

We introduce the chain geometry $\Sigma(K,R)$ over a ring $R$ with a distinguished subfield $K$, thus extending the usual concept where $R$ has to be an algebra over $K$. A chain is uniquely determined by three of its points, if, and only…

Generalised geometry studies structures on a d-dimensional manifold with a metric and 2-form gauge field on which there is a natural action of the group SO(d,d). This is generalised to d-dimensional manifolds with a metric and 3-form gauge…

The supersymmetric Poisson Sigma model is studied as a possible worldsheet realization of generalized complex geometry. Generalized complex structures alone do not guarantee non-manifest N=(2,1) or N=(2,2) supersymmetry, but a certain…

Projective spaces for finite-dimensional vector spaces over general fields are considered. The geometry of these spaces and the theory of line bundles over these spaces is presented. Particularly, the space of global regular sections of…

We consider a general fibre of given length in a generic projection of a va- riety. Under the assumption that the fibre is of local embedding dimension 2 or less, an assumption which can be checked in many cases, we prove that the fibre is…

Any set of $\sigma$-Hermitian matrices of size $n \times n$ over a field with involution $\sigma$ gives rise to a projective line in the sense of ring geometry and a projective space in the sense of matrix geometry. It is shown that the two…

Generalized complex geometry is a new mathematical framework that is useful for describing the target space of N=(2,2) nonlinear sigma-models. The most direct relation is obtained at the N=(1,1) level when the sigma model is formulated with…

For a finite dimensional vector space G we define the k-th generic syzygy scheme Gensyz_k(G) by explicit equations. We show that the syzygy scheme Syz(f) of any syzygy in the linear strand of a projective variety X which is cut out by…

In this note, we generalize the Proj-construction from usual schemes to blue schemes. This yields the definition of projective space and projective varieties over a blueprint. In particular, it is possible to descend closed subvarieties of…

The first part of this note contains a review of basic properties of the variety of lines contained in an embedded projective variety and passing through a general point. In particular we provide a detailed proof that for varieties defined…

We derive the equations of chains for path geometries on surfaces by solving the equivalence problem of a related structure: sub-Riemannian geometry of signature $(1,1)$ on a contact 3-manifold. This approach is significantly simpler than…

We give the full representation theory of the gravitational extended corner symmetry group in two-dimensions. This includes projective representations, which correspond to representations of the quantum corner symmetry group. We find that…

Generalized geometry finds many applications in the mathematical description of some aspects of string theory. In a nutshell, it explores various structures on a generalized tangent bundle associated to a given manifold. In particular,…

In geometric representation theory, one often wishes to describe representations realized on spaces of invariant functions as trace functions of equivariant perverse sheaves. In the case of principal series representations of a connected…

Geometric modeling by constraints, whose applications are of interest to communities from various fields such as mechanical engineering, computer aided design, symbolic computation or molecular chemistry, is now integrated into standard…

We develop a theory of general sheaves over weighted projective lines. We define and study a canonical decomposition, analogous to Kac's canonical decomposition for representations of quivers, study subsheaves of a general sheaf, general…
