The Influence of H. Grassmann on Italian Projective ,-Dimensional GeometryOn May 29, 1883, Corrado Segre took his doctorate in Turin (Torino), under Enrico D’Ovidio’s guidance. His thesis (Segre 1884a,b) was published one year later in the Journal of the local Academy of Science, and after a short time it became a fundamental starting point for the development of Italian projective .-dimensional geometry.

The Cooperation between Hermann and Robert Grassmann on the Foundations of Mathematicshematical concepts in Grassmann’s time is particularly striking in his introduction of an .-dimensional geometry, i.e. the break with the traditional notion of a three-dimensional space (see Lewis 1996). Even Gauß did not discuss or mention this innovation when responding to Grassmann’s sending of the book to him..
