Projective Geometry
Projective geometries are characterised by the "elliptic parallel"
axiom, that any two planes always meet in just one line, or in the
plane, any two lines always meet in just one point. In other words,
there are no such things as parallel lines or planes in projective
geometry.
Central Perspectivity
Rigid Motions
Do not change the shape or size of the pre-image
Translation, Rotation, Reflection
Non-Rigid Motions
Change the size but not the shape of the pre-image.

Finite Geometry
A finite geometry is a geometry with a finite number of points.
Topology
In mathematics, topology is
concerned with the
properties of space that are
preserved under continuous
deformations, such as
stretching, crumpling and
bending, but not tearing or
gluing.
