Projective and Polar Spaces
by Peter J. Cameron
Publisher: Queen Mary College 1991
ISBN/ASIN: 090248012X
ISBN-13: 9780902480124
Number of pages: 147
Description:
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 major themes are the projective and affine spaces, and the polar spaces associated with sesquilinear or quadratic forms on projective spaces. The treatment of these themes blends the descriptive with the axiomatic.

Geometric Wave Equations
by Stefan Waldmann - arXiv
We discuss the solution theory of geometric wave equations as they arise in Lorentzian geometry: for a normally hyperbolic differential operator the existence and uniqueness properties of Green functions and Green operators is discussed.
