Abstract

In this paper, we will extend the class of explicit piecevvise linear descriptions in the modulus form that was recently introduced by Chua cum suis. This is achieved by transforming a special form of a more general implicit description given by Van Bokhoven using the modulus transformation. This results in a set of base functions that can be used to compose the more general explicit description. It will be shown that with this set all previously presented explicit PL descriptions can be covered. Furthermore, we pose some problems that occur when trying to construct an even more general description.
