Topic: Structure associated to every Desarguesian projective plane
Quinn Culver (Feb 13 2023 at 21:45):
En route to formalizing the fundamental theorem of projective geometry, I want to declare a structure associated to every Desarguesian projective plane. (The fundamental theorem says that structure is a division ring that coordinatizes the plane.) TPIL gives the following syntax
structure <name> <parameters> <parent-structures> : Sort u :=
<constructor> :: <fields>
Should the projective plane be one of the parameters? Do I need to use inheritance?

Probably it should be a parameter but hard to guess without more information.
