Abstract

We prove that for any measurable mapping TT into the space of matrices with positive determinant, there is a diffeomorphism whose derivative equals TT outside a set of measure less than ε\varepsilon. We use this fact to prove that for any measurable mapping TT into the space of matrices with non-zero determinant (with no sign restriction), there is an almost everywhere approximately differentiable homeomorphism whose derivative equals TT almost everywhere.
