Topic: translation and dilation

What's the right incantation for a continuous linear equiv for which its trivial to show that it sends one ball to another (even if one of them is centered at zero is enough)? I see we have docs#ContinuousLinearEquiv.smulLeft, but I can't find an addLeft version. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a way to ask loogle this question in a way that would return anything sensible.

If it's a translation it won't be linear right
Jireh Loreaux (Jan 21 2026 at 21:29):
sure, sorry, I meant affine. I just need it to move one ball to another and preserve convexity.
Jireh Loreaux (Jan 21 2026 at 21:34):
oh, I guess it's probably +ᵥ so it's vadd.
Jireh Loreaux (Jan 21 2026 at 21:34):
docs#ContinuousAffineEquiv.constVAdd
Jireh Loreaux (Jan 21 2026 at 21:35):
with docs#Convex.vadd.

I think there's an affine isometry version somewhere too
