Felix Klein
Christian Felix Klein (25 April 1849 – 22 June 1925) was a German mathematician and mathematics educator, known for his work with group theory, complex analysis, non-Euclidean geometry, and on the associations between geometry and group theory.

Homography
In projective geometry, a homography is an isomorphism of projective spaces, induced by an isomorphism of the vector spaces from which the projective spaces derive.

Invariant (mathematics)
In mathematics, an invariant is a property, held by a class of mathematical objects, which remains unchanged when transformations of a certain type are applied to the objects.

Logarithmic spiral
A logarithmic spiral, equiangular spiral or growth spiral is a self-similar spiral curve which often appears in nature.

One-parameter group
In mathematics, a one-parameter group or one-parameter subgroup usually means a continuous group homomorphism from the real line \mathbb (as an additive group) to some other topological group G. That means that it is not in fact a group, strictly speaking; if \varphi is injective then \varphi(\mathbb), the image, will be a subgroup of G that is isomorphic to \mathbb as additive group.

Projective space
In mathematics, a projective space can be thought of as the set of lines through the origin of a vector space V. The cases when and are the real projective line and the real projective plane, respectively, where R denotes the field of real numbers, R2 denotes ordered pairs of real numbers, and R3 denotes ordered triplets of real numbers.
