Staudt, Karl Georg Christian Von
Born Jan. 24, 1798, in Rothenburg; died June 1, 1867, in Erlangen. German mathematician. Staudt became a professor at the University of Erlangen in 1835. His principal works dealt with projective geometry. They sought to provide a logically complete construction of projective geometry that would not rest on concepts borrowed from metric geometry. Staudt contributed a purely projective introduction of general projective (homogeneous) coordinates and an interpretation of the introduction of imaginary quantities into projective geometry.
