The derivative of the PSL(2, ℝ)-action on the upper half-plane #
A Möbius transformation of the upper half-plane is holomorphic, with derivative
det g / denom g z ^ 2 at z, where denom g z = c * z + d is Mathlib's automorphy factor
(UpperHalfPlane.hasStrictDerivAt_smul). A representative in SL(2, ℝ) has determinant 1, so
the derivative is (denom g z ^ 2)⁻¹; squaring the automorphy factor cancels the sign ambiguity
of the representative, so this depends only on the class in PSL(2, ℝ). That well-defined
derivative is Matrix.ProjectiveSpecialLinearGroup.smulDeriv, the quantity the effective
projective action attaches to a point.
By the chain rule the derivative is a cocycle for the action
(Matrix.ProjectiveSpecialLinearGroup.smulDeriv_mul); restricted to the stabilizer of a point
it therefore becomes a character, which is what governs the stabilizers of a discrete subgroup.

The automorphy factor changes sign along with its matrix, so squaring it gives a function of
the class in PSL(2, ℝ).
The automorphy factor at a fixed point is unimodular. The imaginary part of g • z is
im z divided by the squared modulus of the automorphy factor, so fixing z forces that
modulus to be 1.
The derivative at z : ℍ of the Möbius transformation of the upper half-plane attached to
q : PSL(2, ℝ); see Matrix.ProjectiveSpecialLinearGroup.deriv_coe_smul. On a representative
g : SL(2, ℝ) it is (denom g z ^ 2)⁻¹, independent of the representative by
Matrix.SpecialLinearGroup.denom_mapGL_neg.
