History of Lorentz transformations
text:
The history of Lorentz transformations comprises the development of linear transformations forming the Lorentz group or Poincaré group preserving the Lorentz interval − x 0 2 + ⋯ + x n 2 and the Minkowski inner product − x 0 y 0 + ⋯ + x n y n. In mathematics, transformations equivalent to what was later known as Lorentz transformations in various dimensions were discussed in the 19th century in relation to the theory of quadratic forms, hyperbolic geometry, Möbius geometry, and sphere geometry,
