On Nonassociative Division Rings and Projective Planes
An interesting thing happens when one begins with the axioms of a field, but does not require the associative and commutative properties. The resulting nonassociative division ring is referred to as a ``semifield" in this paper. Semifields have intimate ties to finite projective planes. In shor...
