MATH 350 - Geometry

3 NS, QPf
This course takes a modern approach to geometry based on group theory and the Erlangen Programm making possible the survey of a wide spectrum of geometries, Euclidean and non-Euclidean. Geometries treated include Moebius geometry, hyperbolic geometry, elliptic geometry, and absolute geometry. The discovery of these geometries in the 19th century caused a scientific and philosophical revolution second only to the Copernican revolution.
