Mustafa, Khawlah Ali (2018) One-parameter Groups of Möbius Maps in Two-Dimensional Real Commutative Algebra. PhD thesis, University of Leeds.
Abstract
Möbius transformations have been thoughtfully studied over the field of complex numbers. In this thesis, we investigate Möbius transformations over two rings which are not fields: the ring of double numbers $\mathbb O$ and the ring of dual numbers $\mathbb D$.
We will see certain similarity between the cases of fields and rings along with some significant distinctions.
After the introduction and necessary background material, given in the first two chapters, I introduce general linear groups, projective lines and Möbius transformations over several rings such us the ring of integer numbers, the Cartesian product ring and the two rings $\mathbb O$ and $\mathbb D.$
In the following chapters, we consider in details metrics, classification of Möbius maps based on the number of fixed points, connected continuous one-parameter subgroups and an application of Möbius maps.
