The mathematics
Möbius transformations are the angle-preserving (conformal) maps of the Riemann sphere, all of the form f(z) = (az + b) / (cz + d). They take circles to circles and lines to lines, generate every symmetry of the hyperbolic plane, and underlie everything from special relativity boost transformations to the topology of knots. This image applies a single Möbius map to a regular grid, revealing the transformation's geometry directly.
In the Complex Plane Geometry collection
The complex plane is the natural home of conformal transformations — maps that preserve angles locally while warping distances. Möbius transformations of the form f(z) = (az + b) / (cz + d) move circles to circles and lines to lines, and they generate every angle-preserving symmetry of the Riemann sphere. The Joukowski transform w = z + 1/z maps a circle to an airfoil cross-section — the same one used in early aerodynamics to compute lift. Apply these maps to a regular grid and the result is unmistakably geometric and unmistakably mathematical: the lines bend exactly as the complex algebra demands. Each image and animation in this collection is computed from the underlying complex function — no Bézier curves, no artistic license.
f(z) = (az+b)/(cz+d), w = z + 1/z
