    A Möbius transformation is a bijection \(f:\mathbb{P}(\mathbb{F}_p) \rightarrow \mathbb{P}(\mathbb{F}_p)\) of the form \(f(x)= \frac{ax+b}{cx+d},\) \(ad-bc \neq 0,\) together with \(f([-d/c;1])=[1;0]\) and \(f([1;0])=[a/c;1]\). The authors prove that for any set \(T\) of Möbius transformations and point sets \(P\) in \(\mathbb{F}_p^2\) with \(|P| \leq p^{15/13}\), we have \(I(P,T) \ll |P|^{15/19} |T|^{15/19} + |P|^{23/19}|T|^{4/19} +|T|,\) and given any set \(P\) of points with \(|P| \leq p^{15/26}\) and an integer \(k \geq 3\), the set \(T_k\) of \(k\)-rich transformations satisfies \(|T_k| \ll \frac{|P|^{15/4}}{k^{19/4}} + \frac{|P|^2}{k^2}.\) Additionally, they give some asymmetric incidence results together with applications to problems in additive combinatorics and discrete geometry.
