# Math 401, Fall 2025: Thesis notes, S1, Complex projective space. > [!CAUTION] > > In this section, without explicitly stated, all dimensions are in the complex field. A complex projective space is a space that is the set of all lines through the origin in a complex vector space. Described by that nature, there exists a natural definition of the complex projective space given as follows: $$ \mathbb{C}P^n=\frac{\mathbb{C}^{n+1}\setminus\{0\}}{\sim} $$
