Non-Euclidean Geometry

open access: yes, 2000
Certainly one of the greatest mathematical discoveries of the nineteenth century was that of non-Euclidean geometry: seen but not revealed by Gauss, and developed in all its glory by Bolyai and Lobachevsky. The purpose of this chapter is to give an account of this theory, but we do not always follow the historical development. Rather, with hindsight we

Four-dimensional theories match Virtual Reality because here time and space are configured through mutable lines. Since the discovery of non-Euclidean geometry, linearity has been submitted to a profound crisis. Mathematicians showed that there are not one but several geometries.

Non-Euclidean geometry

1989
Surprisingly, the geometry of curved surfaces throws light on the geometry of the plane. More than 2000 years after Euclid formulated axioms for plane geometry, differential geometry showed that the parallel axiom does not follow from the other axioms of Euclid.
