We study the global inversion of a continuous nonsmooth mapping $f: \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^n$, which may be non-locally Lipschitz. To this end, we use the notion of pseudo-Jacobian map associated to f, introduced by Jeyakumar…
We consider the problem of finding sufficient conditions for a locally Lipschitz mapping between Finsler manifolds to be a global homeomorphism. For this purpose, we develop the notion of Clarke generalized differential in this context and,…
Since the Hadamard Theorem, several metric and topological conditions have emerged in the literature to date, yielding global inversion and implicit theorems for functions in different settings. Relevant examples are the mappings between…
A recognized trend of research investigates generalizations of the Hadamard's inversion theorem to functions that may fail to be differentiable. In this vein, the present paper explores some consequences of a recent result about the…
For a large class of metric spaces with nice local structure, which includes Banach-Finsler manifolds and geodesic spaces of curvature bounded above, we give sufficient conditions for a local homeomorphism to be a covering projection. We…
Let $F: \mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^n$ be a $C^{\infty}$ map such that $DF(x)$ is invertible for every $x\in\mathbb{R}^n$. Although being a local diffeomorphism, $F$ is not necessarily globally injective if $n\geq2$. Finding additional…
For a homeomorphism with $p$-integrable distortion, we obtain the optimal global degree of integrability for the reciprocal of its Jacobian determinant. As an application, we strengthen the result of Dole\v{z}alov\'a, Hencl and Mal\'y…
In this partly expository paper we discuss conditions for the global injectivity of $C^2$ semi-algebraic local diffeomorphisms $f:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^n$. In case $n > 2$, we consider the foliations of $\mathbb{R}^n$ defined by the…
For every Finsler metric $F$ we associate a Riemannian metric $g_F$ (called the Binet-Legendre metric). The transformation $F \mapsto g_F$ is $C^0$-stable and has good smoothness properties, in contrast to previous constructions. The…
Finsler geometry is a natural generalization of pseudo-Riemannian geometry. It can be motivated e.g. by a modified version of the Ehlers-Pirani-Schild axiomatic approach to space-time theory. Also, some scenarios of quantum gravity suggest…
The aim of the present paper is to provide a global presentation of the theory of special Finsler manifolds. We introduce and investigate globally (or intrinsically, free from local coordinates) many of the most important and most commonly…
The global homeomorphism theorem for quasiconformal maps describes the following specifically higher-dimensional phenomenon: {\em Locally invertible quasiconformal mapping $f: {\R}^{n} \to {\R}^{n}$ is globally invertible provided $n > 2$.}…
The real Jacobian conjecture claims that if $F=\left(f^1,\ldots,f^n\right):\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^n$ is a polynomial map such that $\det DF$ is nowhere zero, then $F$ is a global injective. The first part is to study the…
We investigate basic properties of mappings of finite distortion $f:X \to \mathbb{R}^2$, where $X$ is any metric surface, i.e., metric space homeomorphic to a planar domain with locally finite $2$-dimensional Hausdorff measure. We introduce…
We provide sufficient conditions for a mapping $f:R^{n}\rightarrow R^{n}$ to be a global diffeomorphism in case it is strictly (Hadamard) differentiable. We use classical local invertibility conditions together with the non-smooth critical…
The aim of the present paper is to establish a global theory of conformal changes in Finsler geometry. Under this change, we obtain the relationships between the most important geometric objects associated to $(M,L)$ and the corresponding…
We explore a generalization of Matsumoto metric intrinsically. Given a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$ which admits a concurrent $\pi$-vector field $\overline{\varphi}$, we consider the change $\widehat{F}(x,y)=\frac {F^2 (x,y)}…
It is known that the famous Feigenbaum-Coullet-Tresser period doubling universality has a counterpart for area-preserving maps of ${\fR}^2$. A renormalization approach has been used in \cite{EKW1} and \cite{EKW2} in a computer-assisted…
We show that S.Vavasis' sufficient condition for global invertibility of a polynomial mapping can be easily generalized to the case of a general Lipschitz mapping. Keywords: Invertibility conditions, generalized Jacobian, nonsmooth…
Let f be local diffeomorphism between real Banach spaces. We prove that if the locally Lipschitz functional F(x)=1/2|f(x)-y|^2 satisfies the Chang Palais-Smale condition for all y in the target space of f, then f is a norm-coercive global…
