| An exploration of the many different flavors of plane geometry. The course begins with finite geometry, then surveys the nine possible Cayley-Klein plane geometries, focusing on Euclidean geometry, the Galilean geometry of uniform motion, spherical and elliptic geometry, and geometries related to relativistic physics such as Minkowskian geometry and hyperbolic geometry. An important tool in the study of these geometries is a study of their symmetry groups. |
