 | | An operation of a discontinuous group must necessarily be specified analytically by a system of equations of the form x'1=fe(x', x2,..., x„ ; al, a2,..., a.), (s = I, 2,..., n), and the different operations of the group will be given by different sets of values of the parameters a1, a2,... |
 | | Linear A most important class of discontinuous groups are those discon- that arise in this way from the general linear continuous tinuous group in a given set of variables. |
 | | Hence the group may be presented in the form of a group of linear transformations of a single variable generated by the two linear transformations z'=Yizaiz++SRi r' z'=72z+32, a2z272z+32, which correspond to pairs of inversions at AB, BC and BC, CA respectively. |
