abstract = {The familiar perceptual constancies of image location in
the field of view, image orientation, size constancy, shape constancy,
binocular distortion, and motion, have their natural mathematical
expression in terms of Lie groups of transformations over the visual
manifold. If Lie's three fundamental theorems are to be satisfied,
three additional perceptual invariances must also be present: time,
efferent binocularity, and what apparently constitutes sort of
circulating memory in space-time. This Lie algebra of visual perception
admits ready explanations for the following visual phenomena: the
development sequence of infant vision; orthogonal after-images;
after-effects of seen movement; the spiral after-effect and the spiral
images sometimes evoked under flicker; reading reversals; and the
visual analogue of the Fitzgerald contraction. The theory also predicts
certain new complementary (orthogonal) after-images, the existence of
which has been verified experimentally.},
