Abstract
The transfer matrix technique is much used to study one-dimensional scattering, such as electrons in semiconductor superlattices. We elaborate on the geometrical interpretation of the transfer matrix, in particular its relation to conformal mapping in the unit disc, and the analogy to Lorentz transformations on a Dirac spinor in 2 + 1 dimensions.
