In this article, we study Sobolev homeomorphisms and composition operators on homogeneous Lie groups. We prove that a measurable homeomorphism $\varphi: \Omega \to\widetilde{\Omega}$ belongs to the Sobolev space $L^{1}_{q}(\Omega;…

Given any positive sequence (\{c_n\}_{n \in {\Bbb N}}), we construct orientation preserving homeomorphisms (f:{\Bbb R}^3 \to {\Bbb R}^3) such that (Fix(f)=Per(f)=\{0\}), (0) is Lyapunov stable and (\limsup \frac{|i(f^m, 0)|}{c_m}= \infty).…

The tensorization problem for Sobolev spaces asks for a characterization of how the Sobolev space on a product metric measure space $X\times Y$ can be determined from its factors. We show that two natural descriptions of the Sobolev space…

We present an elementary proof of a well-known theorem of Cheeger which states that if a metric-measure space $X$ supports a $p$-Poincar\'e inequality, then the $N^{1,p}(X)$ Sobolev space is reflexive and separable whenever $p\in…

We prove a general clustering result for the fractional Sobolev space $W^{s,p}$: whenever the positivity set of a function $u$ in a square has measure bounded from below by a multiple of the cube's volume, and the $W^{s,p}$-seminorm of $u$…

A non-zero constant Jacobian polynomial map $F=(P,Q):\mathbb{C}^2 \longrightarrow \mathbb{C}^2$ has a polynomial inverse if the component $P$ is a simple polynomial, i.e. if, when $P$ extended to a morphism $p:X\longrightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$…

We study when and how the norm of a function $u$ in the homogeneous Sobolev spaces $\dot{W}^{s, p} (\mathbb{R}^n, \mathbb{R}^m)$, with $p \ge 1$ and either $s = 1$ or $s > 1/p$, is controlled by the norm of composite function $f \circ u$ in…

In this paper we obtain a weak version of Lusin's theorem in the Sobolev-$(1,p)$ uniform closure of volume preserving Lipschitz homeomorphisms on closed and connected $d$-dimensional manifolds, $d \geq 2$ and $0<p<1$. With this result at…

We prove that, for $1\leq p< 2$, if a $W^{1,p}$-quasiconvex integrand $\,f\colon\mathbb{R}^{N\times n}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ has linear growth from above on the rank-one cone, then it must satisfy this growth for all matrices in…

Given the planar unit disk as the source and a Jordan domain as the target, we study the problem of extending a given boundary homeomorphism as a Sobolev homeomorphism. For general targets, this Sobolev variant of the classical…

An approximation theorem of Youngs (1948) asserts that a continuous map between compact oriented topological 2-manifolds (surfaces) is monotone if and only if it is a uniform limit of homeomorphisms. Analogous approximation of Sobolev…

It is proved that the Jacobian of a k-endomorphism of k[x_1,...,x_n] over a field k of characteristic zero taking every tame coordinate to a coordinate, must be a nonzero constant in k. It is also proved that the Jacobian of an…

Let $S \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ be a~closed set such that for some $d \in [0,n]$ and $\varepsilon > 0$ the~$d$-Hausdorff content $\mathcal{H}^{d}_{\infty}(S \cap Q(x,r)) \geq \varepsilon r^{d}$ for all cubes~$Q(x,r)$ centered in~$x \in S$…

Near every point of a real-analytic set in $\mathbb R^n$, we make use of Hironaka's resolution of singularity theorem to construct a family of continuous functions in $W^{1, 1}_{loc}$ such that their weak derivatives have (removable)…

We prove that a local, weak Sobolev inequality implies a global Sobolev estimate using existence and regularity results for a family of $p$-Laplacian equations. Given $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, let $\rho$ be a quasi-metric on $\Omega$,…

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions on the density $W:\mathbb R^d\times\mathbb R ^d\to\mathbb R$ in order to ensure the sequential weak* lower semicontinuity of the functional $J: W^{1,\infty}(I;\mathbb R^d)\to \mathbb R$,…

In the paper, we first classify all polynomial maps of the form $H=(u(x,y,z),v(x,y,z), h(x,y))$ in the case that $JH$ is nilpotent and $\deg_zv\leq 1$. After that, we generalize the structure of $H$ to…

This paper presents three new families of fractional Sobolev spaces and their accompanying theory in one-dimension. The new construction and theory are based on a newly developed notion of weak fractional derivatives, which are natural…

We establish the area formula for change-of-variable mappings in the Sobolev space $W^{k,p}_{\text{loc}}$. Our approach relies on constructing Lipschitz approximations of Sobolev functions that agree with the original functions outside a…
