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...
