We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the smooth extension of a diffeomorphism between smooth strictly pseudoconvex domains in four real dimensional almost complex manifolds. The proof is mainly based on a reflection principle…
Quasiconformal maps in the plane are orientation preserving homeomorphisms that satisfy certain distortion inequalities; infinitesimally, they map circles to ellipses of bounded eccentricity. Such maps have many useful geometric distortion…
The present paper is devoted to the study of classes of mappings with non-bounded characteristic of quasiconformality. It is obtained a result on normal families of the open discrete mappings $f:D\rightarrow {\Bbb C}\setminus\{a, b\}$ of…
We study topologically monotone surjective $W^{1,n}$-maps of finite distortion $f \colon \Omega \to \Omega'$, where $\Omega, \Omega' $ are domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 2$. If the outer distortion function $K_f \in…
We consider the convexity properties of distortion functionals, particularly the linear distortion, defined for homeomorphisms of domains in Euclidean $n$-spaces, $n\geq 3$. The inner and outer distortion functionals are lower…
We show that an entire branched cover of finite distortion cannot have a compact branch set if its distortion satisfies a certain asymptotic growth condition. We furthermore show that this bound is strict by constructing an entire,…
We consider a singular holomorphic foliation $\uF$ defined near a compact curve $\uC$ of a complex surface. Under some hypothesis on $(\uF,\uC)$ we prove that there exists a system of tubular neighborhoods $U$ of a curve $\underline{\mc D}$…
We give improved bounds for the distortion of the Hausdorff dimension under quasisymmetric maps in terms of the dilatation of their quasiconformal extension. The sharpness of the estimates remains an open question and is shown to be closely…
Ahlfors and Gehring asked for the Riemann Mapping Theorem for quasiconformal mappings (QC) of R^3. We summarise our solution: (a) QC reflections are tame (b) T is the fixed set of a QC reflection iff T is a uniform sphere (i.e. the limits…
Let $\mathbb D$ be the unit disc in $\mathbb C$ and let $f:\mathbb D \to \mathbb C$ be a Riemann map, $\Delta=f(\mathbb D)$. We give a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of hyperbolic distance and horocycles which assures that a…
The present paper is devoted to the study of mappings with finite distortion on Riemannian manifolds. Theorems on local behavior of generalized quasiisometries with unbounded characteristic of quasiconformality are obtained.
Surface mapping plays an important role in geometric processing. They induce both area and angular distortions. If the angular distortion is bounded, the mapping is called a {\it quasi-conformal} map. Many surface maps in our physical world…
Let $S_i$, $i\in I$, be a countable collection of Jordan curves in the extended complex plane $\Sph$ that bound pairwise disjoint closed Jordan regions. If the Jordan curves are uniform quasicircles and are uniformly relatively separated,…
In this paper we prove that every Riemannian metric on a locally conformally flat manifold with umbilic boundary can be conformally deformed to a scalar flat metric having constant mean curvature. This result can be seen as a generalization…
Let $\Gamma$ be a closed Jordan curve, and $f$ the conformal mapping that sends the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ onto the interior domain of $\Gamma$. If $\log f'$ belongs to the Dirichlet space $\mathcal{D}$, we call $\Gamma$ a Weil-Petersson…
Under a set of assumptions on a family of submanifolds $\subset {\mathbb R}^D$, we derive a series of geometric properties that remain valid after finite-dimensional and almost isometric Diffusion Maps (DM), including almost uniform…
The conformal deformations are contained in two classes of mappings: quasiconformal and harmonic mappings. In this paper we consider the intersection of these classes. We show that, every $K$ quasiconformal harmonic mapping between…
We determine the extent to which certain classes of fractionally `smooth' continuous mappings between metric spaces distort various dimensions, including the Hausdorff, upper Minkowski (box-counting), and upper intermediate dimensions. Our…
In the paper we investigate continuity of Orlicz-Sobolev mappings $W^{1,P}(M,N)$ of finite distortion between smooth Riemannian $n$-manifolds, $n\geq 2$, under the assumption that the Young function $P$ satisfies the so called divergence…
In the present paper, it was studied the boundary behavior of the so-called lower Q-homeomorphisms in the plane that are a natural generalization of the quasiconformal mappings. In particular, it was found a series of effective conditions…
