Abstract

Let E be a vector space over the division ring k and L(E) the lattice of all linear subspaces of E. If Ē is a vector space over the division ring k and T: L(E); → L(Ē) a lattice isomorphism then by the Fundamental Theorem of Projective Geometry ([1] p. 44) τ is induced by a semilinear map T: E → Ē if we assume that dim E ≥ 3.
