The isometry group of n-dimensional Einstein gyrogroup

Abstract

The space of n-dimensional relativistic velocities normalized to c = 1, B = \v∈Rn \|v\| < 1\, is naturally associated with Einstein velocity addition E, which induces the rapidity metric dE on B given by dE(u, v) = -1\|-uEv\|. This metric is also known as the Cayley-Klein metric. We give a complete description of the isometry group of (B, dE), along with its composition law.
