Metric distorsion and triangle maps.
We give an example of a -smooth quasiregular mapping in 3-space with nonempty branch set. Moreover, we show that the branch set of an arbitrary quasiregular mapping in-space has Hausdorff dimension quantitatively bounded away from . By using the second result, we establish a new, qualitatively sharp relation between smoothness and branching.
We consider quasiconformal mappings in the upper half space of , , whose almost everywhere defined trace in has distributional differential in . We give both geometric and analytic characterizations for this possibility, resembling the situation in the classical Hardy space . More generally, we consider certain positive functions defined on , called conformal densities. These densities mimic the averaged derivatives of quasiconformal mappings, and we prove analogous trace theorems for them....
