Möbius transformation

English Alternative forms en Mobius transformation en Moebius transformation Etymology Named for German mathematician and theoretical astronomer August Ferdinand Möbius (1790–1868). Noun en geometry complex analysis A transformation of the extended complex plane that is a rational function of the form f(z) = (az + b) / (cz + d), where a, b, c, d are complex numbers such that ad − bc ≠ 0; an automorphism of the complex projective line. 2008, J.
