Abstract

Given any ff a locally finitely piecewise affine homeomorphism of ΩRd\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d onto ΔRd\Delta \subset \mathbb{R}^d (for d=3,4d=3, 4) such that fW1,p(Ω,Rd)f\in W^{1,p}(\Omega, \mathbb{R}^d) and f1W1,q(Δ,Rd)f^{-1}\in W^{1,q}(\Delta, \mathbb{R}^d), 1p,q<1\leq p ,q < \infty and any ϵ>0\epsilon >0 we construct a diffeomorphism f~\tilde{f} such that ff~W1,p(Ω,Rd)+f1f~1W1,q(Δ,Rd)<ϵ.\|f-\tilde{f}\|_{W^{1,p}(\Omega,\mathbb{R}^d)} + \|f^{-1}-\tilde{f}^{-1}\|_{W^{1,q}(\Delta,\mathbb{R}^d)} < \epsilon.
