LinearFractionalTransform

LinearFractionalTransform[m]
gives a TransformationFunction that represents a linear fractional transformation defined by the homogeneous matrix m.
LinearFractionalTransform
represents a linear fractional transformation that maps to .

Scope   (3)
If the scalar d is omitted it is taken to be 1:
A single matrix is taken to be the homogeneous representation of the transform:
Suppose you have a linear fractional transform t:
The inverse is computed by applying InverseFunction:
This shows that s and t are inverses:
This shows the same thing using formulas:
