Abstract

M.Gromov extended the concepts of conformal and quasiconformal mapping to the mappings acting between the manifolds of different dimensions. For instance, any entire holomorphic function f:\CnC f: \Cn \to {\mathbb C} defines a mapping conformal in the sense of Gromov. In this connection Gromov addressed a natural question: which facts of the classical theory apply to these mappings? In particular is it true that {\em If the mapping F:Rn+1Rn F: \R^{n + 1} \to \R^{n} is conformal and bounded, then it is a constant mapping, provided that n2 n \geq 2 }~? We present arguments confirming the validity of such a Liouville-type theorem.
