In one complex variable, the cross ratio is a well-known quantity associated with four given points in the complex plane that remains invariant under linear fractional maps. In particular, if one knows where three points in the complex plane are mapped under a linear fractional map, one can use this invariance to explicitly determine the map and to show that linear fractional maps are $3$-transitive. In this paper, we define a generalized cross ratio and determine some of its basic properties. In particular, we determine which hypotheses must be made to guarantee that our generalized cross ratio is well defined. We thus obtain a class of maps that obey similar transitivity properties as in one complex dimension, under some more restrictive conditions. |
