My textbook about Special Relativity says that the existence of Lorentz Transformation is guaranteed by the postulates of Special Relativity.
So, I'm assuming it's the first postulate we're talking about; laws of physics remain unchanged in different inertial frames.
However, how does this guarantee we can find the Lorentz Transformation between two inertial frames?
I've never doubted their existence, but I never thought of it as an implication of the first postulate.
