Transformation (function)
In mathematics, a transformation, transform, or self-map1 is a function f, usually with some geometrical underpinning, that maps a set X to itself, i.e. f: X → X.234 Examples include linear transformations of vector spaces and geometric transformations, which include projective transformations, affine transformations, and specific affine transformations, such as rotations, reflections and translations.56
