0, 1, of the two right-hand sides are irrelevant for the moment; the right- hand
sides, here and later, remain unevaluated until the formation of the equations of
all the normal homaloids.) We denote this normal homaloid byNt. There is a
normal ...

and lying in the tangent homaloid thereto, 1.2 n right lines may be drawn
coinciding throughout with the n-theme. Thus one right line can be drawn at each
point of a line of the first order lying on the line ; two right lines at each point of a
surface ...

Philosophy of Science: The Historical Background
Now whenever the value of this measure of curvature in any space is everywhere
zero, that space everywhere conforms to the axioms of Euclid; and it may be
called a flat (homaloid) space in contradistinction to other spaces, analytically ...

We denote this normal homaloid There is a normal homaloid, with three-fold
normality and of (n-3) dimensions : it is orthogonal to the contact homaloid T3
which has three-fold contact and is of three dimensions. It is the amplitude
common to ...
Andrew Russell Forsyth, 1930
This Euclidean space is a tridimensional homaloid, and so, in distinction from it,
spaces with positive or negative curvature are called non-Euclidean. Through all
the centuries up to the present Euclid's space contained at least the thought- ...

centre of forces is at three-fifths of the distance along the diameter through the
point of contact. In space of four dimensions let a homaloid three-dimensional
solid be ...

may be as completely and consistently worked out for such spaces as ordinary
geometry can for our actually existing homaloid space. If the measure of
curvature is positive we have spherical space, in which straightest lines return

Now any continuum of four dimensions, having a quadratic line-element,
however complex, is expressible as a hypersurface in this homaloid [flat]
continuum of five dimensions. If these considerations are correct, the Einstein
generalization, ...
