The authors construct a packing of circles by considering the images of four given circles of special position and radius under the mappings of a subgroup of SL(2,\({\mathbb{C}})\) generated by two hyperbolic rotations, with corresponding angles \(2\pi\) /N. The results are considered in the context of porous media.
