On Functions which form a Group

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  03 November 2016

Extract

It is well known that the functions x, 1 — x, 1/(1 — )x, x/(x — 1), 1 — 1/x, and 1/x form a Group, the rule of combination being substitution of one function in another. The question arises what other sets of functions there may be with a similar property. This note gives one answer to this question.
