Ordered Incidence geometry and the geometric foundations of convexity theory

An Ordered Incidence Geometry, that is a geometry with certain axioms of incidence and order, is proposed as a minimal setting for the fundamental convexity theorems, which usually appear in the context of a linear vector space, but require only incidence, order (and for separation, completeness), and none of the linear structure of a vector space.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/42995/1/22_2005_Article_BF01227810.pd
