Kummer, (E.E.). On Algebraic Lattice Systems, in Particular Those of the First and Second Order. Read at the Academy of Sciences on August 9, 1866. 4°. 120 pp. Contemporary half-leather (cover slightly damaged). From the Proceedings of the Berlin Academy of Sciences. - “After Kummer had outlined a general theory of rectilinear ray systems in Crelle’s Journal, Vol. 57 (1860), still following Hamilton to some extent, had outlined a general theory of rectilinear ray systems, he successfully engaged in the enumeration and study of algebraic ray systems of the first and second order (Proceedings of the Berlin Academy 1866). In the process, he discovered the fourth-order surface named after him, with 16 double points and 16 double planes" (Felix Klein, Lectures on the Development of Mathematics in the 19th Century, Vol. I, p. 200). - Some foxing.
