Abstract: | We show that each parabolic curve f in R2 produces a Laguerre plane
if f and all its images under dilatations are cycles. Likewise, two hyperbolic curves f1,f2 produce a Minkowski planeM(f1,f2). We determine for which curves
is miquelian resp. ovoidal, and for which pairs f1,f2,M(f1,f2) is miquelian resp. satisfies the rectangle axiom, thus providing many examples of non-embeddable planes. |
