| 31. | The conformal isometries of a domain therefore consist of holomorphic self-maps.
|
| 32. | This action is an isometry of the word metric.
|
| 33. | Allometric scaling is any change that deviates from isometry.
|
| 34. | Thus at most three reflections suffice to reproduce any plane isometry . "
|
| 35. | The identity is an isometry; nothing changes, so distance cannot change.
|
| 36. | Together these are all the direct isometries in 3D.
|
| 37. | Consequently, any linear transformation corresponding to a signature matrix constitutes an isometry.
|
| 38. | Suppose for the moment that " U " is an isometry.
|
| 39. | That should narrow down the search for what isometries work to something finite.
|
| 40. | The isometries form a proper subgroup of, namely PSU ( 2 ).
