Paper 3, Section II, F
Let be a Möbius transformation on the Riemann sphere .
(i) Show that has either one or two fixed points.
(ii) Show that if is a Möbius transformation corresponding to (under stereographic projection) a rotation of through some fixed non-zero angle, then has two fixed points, , with .
(iii) Suppose has two fixed points with . Show that either corresponds to a rotation as in (ii), or one of the fixed points, say , is attractive, i.e. as for any .
