Rescaling principle for isolated essential singularities of quasiregular mappings
2012
We establish a rescaling theorem for isolated essential singularities of quasiregular mappings. As a consequence we show that the class of closed manifolds receiving a quasiregular mapping from a punctured unit ball with an essential singularity at the origin is exactly the class of closed quasiregularly elliptic manifolds, that is, closed manifolds receiving a non-constant quasiregular mapping from a Euclidean space.
Free vs. Locally Free Kleinian Groups
2015
Abstract We prove that Kleinian groups whose limit sets are Cantor sets of Hausdorff dimension < < 1 are free. On the other hand we construct for any ε > > 0 an example of a non-free purely hyperbolic Kleinian group whose limit set is a Cantor set of Hausdorff dimension < < 1 + + ε.
Quasiregular ellipticity of open and generalized manifolds
2014
We study the existence of geometrically controlled branched covering maps from \(\mathbb R^3\) to open \(3\)-manifolds or to decomposition spaces \(\mathbb {S}^3/G\), and from \(\mathbb {S}^3/G\) to \(\mathbb {S}^3\).
Geometry and quasisymmetric parametrization of Semmes spaces
2014
We consider decomposition spaces R/G that are manifold factors and admit defining sequences consisting of cubes-with-handles. Metrics on R/G constructed via modular embeddings of R/G into Euclidean spaces promote the controlled topology to a controlled geometry. The quasisymmetric parametrizability of the metric space R/G×R by R for any m ≥ 0 imposes quantitative topological constraints, in terms of the circulation and the growth of the cubes-with-handles, to the defining sequences for R/G. We give a necessary condition and a sufficient condition for the existence of parametrization. The necessary condition answers negatively a question of Heinonen and Semmes on quasisymmetric parametrizabi…
Stoïlow’s theorem revisited
2020
Stoilow's theorem from 1928 states that a continuous, open, and light map between surfaces is a discrete map with a discrete branch set. This result implies that such maps between orientable surfaces are locally modeled by power maps z -> z(k) and admit a holomorphic factorization. The purpose of this expository article is to give a proof of this classical theorem having readers in mind that are interested in continuous, open and discrete maps. (C) 2019 Elsevier GmbH.

Bing meets Sobolev
2019
We show that, for each $1\le p < 2$, there exists a wild involution $\mathbb S^3\to \mathbb S^3$ in the Sobolev class $W^{1,p}(\mathbb S^3,\mathbb S^3)$.
Sharpness of Rickman’s Picard theorem in all dimensions
2015
We show that given \({n \geqslant 3}\), \({q \geqslant 1}\), and a finite set \({\{y_1, \ldots, y_q \}}\) in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\) there exists a quasiregular mapping \({\mathbb{R}^n\to \mathbb{R}^n}\) omitting exactly points \({y_1, \ldots, y_q}\).
Equilibrium measures for uniformly quasiregular dynamics
2012
We establish the existence and fundamental properties of the equilibrium measure in uniformly quasiregular dynamics. We show that a uniformly quasiregular endomorphism $f$ of degree at least 2 on a closed Riemannian manifold admits an equilibrium measure $\mu_f$, which is balanced and invariant under $f$ and non-atomic, and whose support agrees with the Julia set of $f$. Furthermore we show that $f$ is strongly mixing with respect to the measure $\mu_f$. We also characterize the measure $\mu_f$ using an approximation property by iterated pullbacks of points under $f$ up to a set of exceptional initial points of Hausdorff dimension at most $n-1$. These dynamical mixing and approximation resu…
Geometry and quasisymmetric parametrization of Semmes spaces
2011
We consider decomposition spaces R 3 /G that are manifold factors and admit defining sequences consisting of cubes-with-handles of finite type. Metrics on R 3 /G constructed via modular embeddings of R 3 /G into a Euclidean space promote the controlled topology to a controlled geometry. The quasisymmetric parametrizability of the metric space R 3 /G×R m by R 3+m for any m ≥ 0 imposes quantitative topological constraints, in terms of the circulation and the growth of the cubes-with-handles, on the defining sequences for R 3 /G. We give a necessary condition and a sufficient condition for the existence of such a parametrization. The necessary condition answers negatively a question of Heinone…
