Abstract: Abstract The real projective plane is a nonorientable surface , for it is possible to move a small oriented circle around a closed curve on the surface in such a way that in the end it comes back with the opposite orientation. All models that are discussed in this chapter represent closed surfaces in Euclidean three-space that are homeomorphic to IR P2.
