In mathematics, a ternary ring is an algebraic structure consisting of a non-empty set and a ternary mapping, and a planar ternary ring (PTR) or ternary field is special sort of a ternary ring used by Hall (1943) to give coordinates to projective planes. A planar ternary ring is not a ring in the traditional sense.

Famous quotes containing the word ring:
“But whatever happens, wherever the scene is laid, somebody, somewhere, will quietly set out—somebody has already set out, somebody still rather far away is buying a ticket, is boarding a bus, a ship, a plane, has landed, is walking toward a million photographers, and presently he will ring at my door—a bigger, more respectable, more competent Gradus.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
