Variations on the real projective orbits of SL(2, Z) and GL(2, Z)
From MaRDI portal
Publication:1611554
The author provides a very readable, elementary article on the action of \(\text{GL}(2,\mathbb Z)\) by homographies on the projective line \(\mathbb P^1(\mathbb R)=\mathbb R\cup\{\infty\}\). This includes a comparison of the orbits of \(\text{GL}(2,\mathbb Z)\) and \(\text{SL} (2,\mathbb Z)\), which provides new connections with continued fractions and Fermat-Pell equations. This is recommended reading.
