Projectivization


In mathematics, projectivization is a procedure which associates with a non-zero vector space V a projective space , whose elements are one-dimensional subspaces of V. More generally, any subset S of V closed under scalar multiplication defines a subset of formed by the lines contained in S and is called the projectivization of S.

A related procedure embeds a vector space V over a field K into the projective space of the same dimension. To every vector v of V, it associates the line spanned by the vector (v, 1) of VK.
