The Algebra of Invariants
Excerpt from The Algebra of Invariants
The remainder of the book is mainly of geometrical interest much space is devoted to Apolarity and Rational Curves, and the treatment of ternary forms is from the geometrical rather than the analytical point of View. The only complete system of ternary forms given is that for two Quadratics: it may be felt that more should have been said on this subject, but we think that with the methods known up to the present the treatment of ternary forms is too tedious for a text-book.
