Geometries on surfaces /
"The projective, Mobius, Laguerre, and Minkowski planes over the real numbers are just a few examples of a host of fundamental classical topological geometries on surfaces that satisfy an axiom of joining. This book summarises all known major results and open problems related to these classical...
