\mathbb{P}^{2} is an affine plane of 2 dimensions

The Attempt at a Solution



Take for example the affine plane with z=1. Then I take a general vector v= [x,y,1] and i apply the transformation B and then the transformation A.
So i get Bv=f(v) and Av=cf(v).

To me this doesn't seems the same transformation in the affine plane.
Where am i wrong ?

You're not, but we have the projective plane here, not the affine.
Let ##f(v)=(f_1:f_2:f_3)##, then projective means ##(f_1:f_2:f_3) = (c \cdot f_1:c \cdot f_2:c \cdot f_3)##. This is exactly what projective means: the relations between the coordinates are equal, not the coordinates themselves.

Please take the trouble to actually type out the problem statement; your attached image is unreadable on my devices. Read the post "Guidelines for students and helpers" for more about this issue!
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
