✦ Synopsis


In intuitionistic (or constructive) geometry there are positive counterparts, 'apart' and 'outside', of the relations '=' and 'incident'. In this paper it is shown that the relation 'outside' suffices to define 'incident', 'apart' and 'equality'. The equivalence of the new system with Heyting's system is shown and as a simple corollary one obtains duality for intuitionistic projective geometry.

## Abstract In this paper we provide quantifier‐free, constructive axiomatizations for several fragments of plane Euclidean geometry over Euclidean fields, such that each axiom contains at most 4 variables. The languages in which they are expressed contain only at most ternary operations. In some p

## Abstract This paper continues the investigations begun in [6] and continued in [7] about quantifier‐free axiomatizations of plane Euclidean geometry using ternary operations. We show that plane Euclidean geometry over Archimedean ordered Euclidean fields can be axiomatized using only two ternary

## Abstract In this paper we provide a quantifier‐free constructive axiomatization for Euclidean planes in a first‐order language with only ternary operation symbols and three constant symbols (to be interpreted as ‘points’). We also determine the algorithmic theories of some ‘naturally occurring’
