Adjoin the label . Inversion on the projective line, with zero and infinity interchanged, is
The label is fixed. Set , where the subscript one denotes the original point label, namely field zero. Then and , so normalizes .
For outside , we have . On the projective line,
The equality uses characteristic two and is valid as an equality of fractional linear transformations, including poles and infinity. Thus
All conditions of the double-coset criterion for a one-point extension hold. Therefore is a one-point extension, with . Its stabilizer subgroup is sharply two-transitive, so its action on nine points is sharply three-transitive.
