Group actions on projectivization #

Show that (among other groups), the general linear group and the special linear groups of V act on ℙ K V.

Prove that these actions are 2-transitive.

TODO #

Generalize to the special linear group over a division ring.

Any group acting K-linearly on V (such as the general linear group) acts on ℙ V.
