On Arne Dür's Equation Concerning Central Axonometries
Journal for geometry and graphics, Tome 8 (2004) no. 2, pp. 215-224
It is a classical Descriptive Geometry problem in the Euclidean n-space to characterize the central projections among collinear transformations with rank deficiency. Recently A. Dür [Journal for Geometry and Graphics 7 (2003) 137--143] presented for n = 3 a characterization in form of an equation in complex coordinates -- the central axonometric counterpart of the Gauss equation for orthogonal axonometries. Here two new proofs for Dür's equation are given combined with equivalent statements. And its n-dimensional generalization is addressed which characterizes two-dimensional orthogonal central views among central axonometries.
