Projective space

An 𝑛-dimensional projective space over a field 𝕂 refers to an extension of 𝑛-dimensional affine space such that parallel lines intersect at infinity. This notion is axiomatized by the abstract projective space. One way of constructing this is a Projectivization of a vector space, which is the space of 1-dimensional subspaces (i.e. lines intersecting the origin) of the vector space 𝕂𝑛+1.
