Mappings of finite distortion: condition N

2001, The Michigan Mathematical Journal

AI-generated Abstract

This paper investigates mappings of finite distortion and the Lusin condition N, which stipulates that a continuous mapping f from a domain in R^n (n ≥ 2) must preserve the measure of sets of measure zero under its deformation. The authors review the existing literature on this condition, highlight the significance of regularity assumptions for satisfying Lusin's condition, and introduce key concepts such as topological degrees and weak Jacobians. The findings demonstrate necessary and sufficient conditions for mappings to satisfy the Lusin condition N, emphasizing the interplay between geometric properties and analytic requirements.
