Div, grad, rot in projective geometry?

46 Views Asked by At

Is it possible to define generalisations of the grad, rot and div operators
in classical projective geometry using homogenous coordinates?

I know for example in $RP^2$ that the grad of a homogeneous function $c: F(x,y,z)=0 \leftrightarrow F(\rho x,\rho y, \rho z)=0$ gives the coordinates of the tangent line in point $(x,y,z)$ to the curve $c$.

A literature reference or a link to an article is also appreciated.
