The contributions of Hilbert and Dehn to non-archimedean geometries and their impact on the italian school

Cinzia Cerroni (2007)

Revue d'histoire des mathématiques

In this paper we investigate the contribution of Dehn to the development of non-Archimedean geometries. We will see that it is possible to construct some models of non-Archimedean geometries in order to prove the independence of the continuity axiom and we will study the interrelations between Archimedes’ axiom and Legendre’s theorems. Some of these interrelations were also studied by Bonola, who was one of the very few Italian scholars to appreciate Dehn’s work. We will see that, if Archimedes’...

The Tutte polynomial of a morphism of matroids I. Set-pointed matroids and matroid perspectives

Michel Las Vergnas (1999)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We study the basic algebraic properties of a 3-variable Tutte polynomial the author has associated with a morphism of matroids, more precisely with a matroid strong map, or matroid perspective in the present paper, or, equivalently by the Factorization Theorem, with a matroid together with a distinguished subset of elements. Most algebraic properties of the usual 2-variable Tutte polynomial of a matroid generalize to the 3-variable polynomial. Among specific properties we show that the 3-variable...
