Homework Statement



I want to know how I could extract T from Tz in matrix form so I can
get [tex]T^{-1}[/tex] to get the inverse of w(z).

w(z)=Tz=[tex]\frac{az+b}{cz+d}[/tex]

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution

You can't. The moebius transform is not linear and only linear transforms can be written as matrices.
 
Thanks.

So how how do I solve it if I don't want to remember the answer [tex]z(w)=\frac{-dw+b}{cw-a}?[/tex]
 
You invert it like you invert any other function. If w=(az+b)/(cz+d), solve that equation for z using algebra.
 
Of course, I am to tired now I should go to sleep :) Thank you.
