Abstract

The real plane is a Baer subplane of the complex projective plane in the following sense: each complex line contains a real point and, dually, each complex point is on a real line. In the first part of this survey main aspects of the general theory will be reviewed. The second part is concerned with finite planes. Part 3 deals rather completely with Baer subplanes of compact, connected topological projective planes.
