On birational monomial transformations of plane

We study birational monomial transformations of the form φ(x:y:z)=(ϵ1xα1yβ1zγ1:ϵ2xα2yβ2zγ2:xα3yβ3zγ3), where ϵ1,ϵ2∈{−1,1}. These transformations form a group. We describe this group in terms of generators and relations and, for every such transformation φ, we prove a formula, which represents the tr...

We describe this group in terms of generators and relations and, for every such transformation φ, we prove a formula, which represents the transformation φ as a product of generators of the group.
