Classes of piecewise-quasiaffine transformations on the generalized \(2\)-group of quaternions (Q6067836)

The class of nonabelian \(2\)-groups \(H\) with cyclic subgroup of index \(2\) includes the dihedral group, the generalized quaternion group, the semidihedral group and the modular maximal cyclic group. The present paper is devoted to the construction, via an integral approach, of classes of piecewise-quasiaffine orthomorphisms, complete transformations and their left analogues on nonabelian \(2\)-group with cyclic subgroup of index \(2\). In this paper, the authors introduce piecewise-quasiaffine transformations on a group \(H\) and study criteria of their bijectivity. For the generalized group of quaternions of order \(2^{m}\), they obtain a complete classification of orthomorphisms, complete transformations and their left analogues in the class of piecewise-quasiaffine transformations under consideration.
