By way ofanexample, weconsider in detail the complex projective line.[…]Thus via the function the complex projective line becomes identified with the "extended complex plane" (i.e. the ordinary complex plane with an additional "point at infinity"). 2..2.1 TheoremThe complex projective line is diffeomorphic to the 2-dimensional sphere .

The formal definition above is a version of the definition of a projective space by homogeneous coordinates. (See also Projective space on Wikipedia.Wikipedia )
