Show that $ad-bc ne 0$ for a composition of two Mobius transformations.












0














I could prove that a composition of two Mobius transformations is again a Mobius transformation. Let be $T(z)=dfrac{a_1z+b_1}{c_1z+d_1}, (a_1d_1-c_1b_1 ne 0)$ and $S(z)=dfrac{a_2z+b_2}{c_2z+d_2}, (a_2d_2-c_2b_2 ne 0)$, so $S[T(z)]=dfrac{a_3z+b_3}{c_3z+d_3}$. But I can't prove whether $a_3d_3-c_3b_3 ne 0)$. The book says $a_3d_3-c_3b_3 = (a_1d_1-c_1b_1)(a_2d_2-c_2b_2)$ but in order that to hold also must $c_2b_2(c_1b_1+a_1d_1)=0$ hold to make $a_3d_3-c_3b_3 - (a_1d_1-c_1b_1)(a_2d_2-c_2b_2)$ to be zero. I did calculations thrice! Where am I doing wrong?

There is a natural identification of these transformations with that of $2times 2$ matrices with non-zero determinant:



$$frac{az+b}{cz+d}longleftrightarrow begin{pmatrix}a&b\
c&d
end{pmatrix}.$$



You can, relatively easily, prove that composition of two of these transformations coincides with matrix multiplication, which makes the result easier to see.
