A transformation is a mapping of a (sometimes projective) plane to itself so that each point has a unique image and also has a unique point that was mapped to it. They include Translations, Reflections, Dilations/Homethecy, and Inversion.
More generally, however, a transformation can also denote a mapping from one arbitary metric space to another.
