Projective Differential Geometry Of Curves And Surfaces
by Ernest Preston Lane
Publisher: The University Of Chicago Press 1932
Number of pages: 344
Description:
Projective Differential Geometry is largely a product of the first three decades of the twentieth century. The theory has been developed in five or more different languages, by three or four well-recognized methods, in various and sundry notations, and has been published partly in journals not readily accessible to all.

Projective and Polar Spacesby Peter J. Cameron - Queen Mary College
The author is concerned with the geometry of incidence of points and lines, over an arbitrary field, and unencumbered by metrics or continuity (or even betweenness). The treatment of these themes blends the descriptive with the axiomatic.

Noncompact Harmonic Manifoldsby Gerhard Knieper, Norbert Peyerimhoff - arXiv
We provide a survey on recent results on noncompact simply connected harmonic manifolds, and we also prove many new results, both for general noncompact harmonic manifolds and for noncompact harmonic manifolds with purely exponential volume growth.
