Incidence structure
Summary
An incidence structure consists of a set of points, a set of lines, and a relation that says which points lie on which lines. Nothing else is assumed: there are no distances, no angles and no coordinates. Projective planes, affine planes, block designs and many other combinatorial objects are incidence structures with extra axioms. It is the basic object of incidence geometry.
