Functions with prescribed singularities

Giovanni Alberti, S. Baldo, G. Orlandi (2003)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

The distributional k -dimensional Jacobian of a map u in the Sobolev space W 1 , k 1 which takes values in the sphere S k 1 can be viewed as the boundary of a rectifiable current of codimension k carried by (part of) the singularity of u which is topologically relevant. The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the range of the Jacobian operator; in particular, we show that any boundary M of codimension k can be realized as Jacobian of a Sobolev map valued in S k 1 . In case M is polyhedral, the map we construct...

Hessian determinants as elements of dual Sobolev spaces

Teresa Radice (2014)

Studia Mathematica

In this short note we present new integral formulas for the Hessian determinant. We use them for new definitions of Hessian under minimal regularity assumptions. The Hessian becomes a continuous linear functional on a Sobolev space.

Injectivity onto a star-shaped set for local homeomorphisms in n-space

Gianluca Gorni, Gaetano Zampieri (1994)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We provide a number of either necessary and sufficient or only sufficient conditions on a local homeomorphism defined on an open, connected subset of the n-space to be actually a homeomorphism onto a star-shaped set. The unifying idea is the existence of "auxiliary" scalar functions that enjoy special behaviours along the paths that result from lifting the half-lines that radiate from a point in the codomain space. In our main result this special behaviour is monotonicity, and the auxiliary function...

Inverse Function Theorems and Jacobians over Metric Spaces

Luca Granieri (2014)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

We present inversion results for Lipschitz maps f : Ω ⊂ ℝN → (Y, d) and stability of inversion for uniformly convergent sequences. These results are based on the Area Formula and on the l.s.c. of metric Jacobians.

Lebesgue measure and mappings of the Sobolev class W 1 , n

O. Martio (1995)

Banach Center Publications

We present a survey of the Lusin condition (N) for W 1 , n -Sobolev mappings f : G n defined in a domain G of n . Applications to the boundary behavior of conformal mappings are discussed.

Liouville type theorems for mappings with bounded (co)-distortion

Marc Troyanov, Sergei Vodop'yanov (2002)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We obtain Liouville type theorems for mappings with bounded s -distorsion between Riemannian manifolds. Besides these mappings, we introduce and study a new class, which we call mappings with bounded q -codistorsion.
