Let II, II′ be projective translation planes, their sets of points, l, l′ the improper lines, and T, T′ the corresponding translation groups. T is an Abelian group, simply transitive on . The set of the subgroups Ts = {τ|τT, cen τ = S} for all Sl is called the congruence of II (cen τ = centre of τ). An injective map , where , is said to be a collineation of when and three points in are collinear if and only if their images are collinear; the set of these φ is denoted by and for we write
