The Geometric Theory of Holomorphic Functions
Published in Steven G. Krantz, Complex Variables, 2019
Let C be the set of subsets of ℂ ∪ {∞} consisting of (i) circles and (ii) sets of the form L ∪ {∞} where L is a line in ℂ. We call the elements of C “generalized circles.” Then every linear fractional transformation φ takes elements of C to elements of C. One verifies this last assertion by noting that any linear fractional transformation is the composition of dilations, translations, and the inversion map z ↦ 1/z and each of these component maps clearly sends generalized circles to generalized circles.

Definition 6.1. Let a, b, c, d ∈ ℂ and assume ad – bc ≠ 0. Put f(z)=az+bcz+d. The function z ↦ f(z) is called a linear fractional transformation.

The notation used in this article is standard. denotes the set of real matrices; I is an identity matrix and represents the transpose of a matrix. For square matrices, is the determinant and the trace of A. If , means that A is positive (semi-)definite and that it is negative (semi-)definite. Symmetric blocks in matrices are occasionally indicated by ★ and stands for the induced- norm. The notation is used to represent a state-space realization. For a concise notation, the dependence of the signals on k will be dropped wherever it does not confuse the reader. Furthermore, consider two dynamical systems and with appropriate dimensions. Then, the upper linear-fractional transformation (LFT) is defined as and the lower LFT is given by

For a study object of ϕ on we consider a rational map of degree of the form such that and , where for all . From this assumption, it is evident that is nonzero in and . For a rational map of at least degree 2, the number of periodic points of a fixed period must be finite. Hence, there exists an element such that and are distinct. Let be the conjugation of ϕ by the linear fractional transformation g of the form, Then we directly check that and because and . By replacing with ϕ, we take a rational map ϕ in (6) of the desired form but note that it does not necessarily have good reduction.

The following symbols and notations are adopted. (*,#) stands for the upper linear fractional transformation. diag{Xi|Li = 1} represents a block-diagonal matrix with its ith diagonal block being Xi, while col{Xi|Li = 1} the vector/matrix stacked by Xi|Li = 1 with its ith row block being Xi. {Xij|i = M, j = Ni = 1, j = 1} denotes a matrix with M × N blocks and its ith row jth column block matrix being Xij. 0m and 0m × n, respectively denote the m dimensional zero column vector and the m × n dimensional zero matrix, while the subscript with respect to dimensions is omitted under the premise of no ambiguity. Similarly, Im, identity matrix with m × m dimension, is abbreviated as I. R♯ means real column vectors set with appropriate dimensions. The superscripts T and H are used to denote, respectively the transpose and conjugate transpose of a matrix/vector and XTWX is sometimes abbreviated as (*)TWX or XTW(*), especially when the term X has a complicated expression. For symmetrical matrices A and B, A < (≤, >, ≥)B means A − B is negative definite (negative semi-definite, positive definite, positive semi-definite).
