Continuous Geometry
In his work on rings of operators in Hilbert space, John von Neumann discovered a new mathematical structure that resembled the lattice system Ln. In characterizing its properties, von Neumann founded the field of continuous geometry.
This book, based on von Neumann''s lecture notes, begins with the development of the axioms of continuous geometry, dimension theory, and--for the irreducible case--...
