Review text

The authors define a planar ternary ring with zero (PTRZ) (which seems to be a normal planar ternary ring (R,T) without the requirement that \(T(a,1,0)=T(1,a,0)=a\) for every \(a\in R)\) and show that a certain weak Desargues property is equivalent to the linearity of its coordinatizing PTRS. This is similar to the standard necessary and sufficient condition for a planar ternary ring to be linear - see e.g. \textit{D. R. Hughes} and \textit{F. C. Piper} [Projective Planes (1973; Zbl 0267.50018), pp. 127-129].
