Abstract:Introduction.The purpose of the present paper is to develop a purely geometric theory of the projective differential geometry of curves in a space of five dimensions, the methods hitherto adopted by various authors(2) being more or less analytic and artificial.The projective differential theory of plane curves is one of the cornerstones upon which our theory of curves in five dimensions rests. The problem of finding a covariant figure to associate projectively with the neighborhood of order five at an ordinary… Show more
