Lens-to-quadrant Möbius map

ID: lens-to-quadrant-mobius-map

Let . Writing , its inverse gives and . The lens condition is therefore exactly . Multiplication by converts that to positive real and imaginary parts. Thus the displayed Möbius transformation maps the lens bijectively to the first quadrant. Its two boundary arcs meet at , which map to zero and infinity. The centre zero maps to . The derivative never vanishes inside the lens.
