A Generalization of von Staudt's Theorem on Cross-Ratios
Abstract
A generalization of von Staudt's theorem that every permutation of the projective line that preserves harmonic quadruples is a projective semilinear map is given. It is then concluded that any proper supergroup of permutations of the projective semilinear group over an algebraically closed field of transcendence degree at least 1 is 4-transitive.
