Description: Desargues's theorem of projective geometry (proved for a Hilbert lattice). Assume each triple of atoms (points) P Q R and S T U forms a triangle (i.e. determines a plane). Assume that lines P S , Q T , and R U meet at a "center of perspectivity" C . (We also assume that C is not on any of the 6 lines forming the two triangles.) Then the atoms D = ( P .\/ Q ) ./\ ( S .\/ T ) , E = ( Q .\/ R ) ./\ ( T .\/ U ) , F = ( R .\/ P ) ./\ ( U .\/ S ) are colinear, forming an "axis of perspectivity".
Our proof roughly follows Theorem 2.7.1, p. 78 in Beutelspacher and Rosenbaum,Projective Geometry: From Foundations to Applications, Cambridge University Press (1988). Unlike them, we do not assume that C is an atom to make this theorem slightly more general for easier future use. However, we prove that C must be an atom in dalemcea .
For a visual demonstration, see the "Desargues's theorem" applet at http://www.dynamicgeometry.com/JavaSketchpad/Gallery.html . The points I, J, and K there define the axis of perspectivity.
See theorem dalaw for Desargues's law, which eliminates all of the preconditions on the atoms except for central perspectivity. This is Metamath 100 proof #87. (Contributed by NM, 20-Aug-2012)
