Abstract: | We list all diffeomorphisms between an open subset of the four-dimensional projective space and an open subset of the four-dimensional sphere that take all line segments to arcs of round circles. These diffeomorphisms are restrictions of quaternionic Hopf fibrations and radial projections from hyperplanes to spheres. |
