Projective differential geometry of correspondences between two spaces. I

Correspondences between projective planes

We characterize integral homology classes of the product of two projective planes which are representable by a subvariety.

Prehomogenous spaces and projective geometry

Notes on Projective Differential Geometry

Projective differential geometry was initiated in the 1920s, especially by Élie Cartan and Tracey Thomas. Nowadays, the subject is not so well-known. These notes aim to remedy this deficit and present several reasons why this should be done at this time. The deeper underlying reason is that projective differential geometry provides the most basic application of what has come to be known as the ...

Projective Geometry I: an Exploration

The aim of this paper and its sequel is to introduce and classify the holonomy algebras of the projective Tractor connection. This paper analyses the Tractor connection, the various structures it can preserve, and their geometric interpretations. It then presents the projective cone construction, a linking between standard affine holonomy and Tractor holonomy, and uses it to define the complex ...

Differential Geometry of Submanifolds of Projective Space

These are lecture notes on the rigidity of submanifolds of projective space “resembling” compact Hermitian symmetric spaces in their homogeneous embeddings. The results of [16, 20, 29, 18, 19, 10, 31] are surveyed, along with their classical predecessors. The notes include an introduction to moving frames in projective geometry, an exposition of the Hwang-Yamaguchi ridgidity theorem and a new v...
