Abstract

Modular Möbius number systems consist of Möbius transformations with integer coefficients and unit determinant. We show that in any modular Möbius number system, the computation of a Möbius transformation with integer coefficients can be performed by a finite state transducer and has linear time complexity. As a byproduct we show that every modular Möbius number system has the expansion subshift of finite type.
