Equi-Affine Geometry

The branch of affine geometry that studies the invariants of an affine unimodular group of transformations. The most important fact is the existence in equi-affine geometry of areas of parallelograms in plane geometry and of volumes of parallelepipeds in three-dimensional geometry.
