Addenda to “The parallel postulate”

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

It is pointed out that: (1) the positive version of the parallel postulate appearing in Pambuccian (Ann Univ Ferrara 71: 17, 2025) can be found in a 1935 manuscript by Paul Bernays and in Grundlagen der Mathematik, vol. II by Hilbert and Bernays; and (2) that axiom S appearing in the same paper is almost identical to Axiom IV in F. P. Jenks’ 1940 incidence-based axiom system for hyperbolic geometry.
