Abstract

In this paper for every kZk\in\mathbb{Z} we construct a sequence of weakly converging homeomorphisms hm ⁣:B(0,10)R3h_m\colon B(0,10)\to\mathbb{R}^3, hmhh_m\rightharpoonup h in W1,2(B(0,10))W^{1,2}(B(0,10)), such that hm(x)=xh_m(x)=x on B(0,10)\partial B(0,10) and for every r(516,716)r\in \left(\tfrac5{16},\tfrac{7}{16}\right) the degree of hh with respect to the ball B(0,r)B(0,r) is equal to kk on a set of positive measure.
