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 \(\mathbb {S}^3\).
Open and Discrete Maps with Piecewise Linear Branch Set Images are Piecewise Linear Maps
2018
The image of the branch set of a piecewise linear (PL)‐branched cover between PL 𝑛n‐manifolds is a simplicial (𝑛−2)(n−2)‐complex. We demonstrate that the reverse implication also holds: an open and discrete map 𝑓:𝕊𝑛→𝕊𝑛f:Sn→Sn with the image of the branch set contained in a simplicial (𝑛−2)(n−2)‐complex is equivalent up to homeomorphism to a PL‐branched cover. peerReviewed
On proper branched coverings and a question of Vuorinen
2022
We study global injectivity of proper branched coverings from the open Euclidean n$n$-ball onto an open subset of the Euclidean n$n$-space in the case where the branch set is compact. In particular, we show that such mappings are homeomorphisms when n=3$n=3$ or when the branch set is empty. This gives a positive answer to the corresponding cases of a question of Vuorinen.

A Koebe distortion theorem for quasiconformal mappings in the Heisenberg group
2017
We prove a Koebe distortion theorem for the average derivative of a quasiconformal mapping between domains in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}_1$. Several auxiliary properties of quasiconformal mappings between subdomains of $\mathbb{H}_1$ are proven, including distortion of balls estimates and local BMO-estimates for the logarithm of the Jacobian of a quasiconformal mapping. Applications of the Koebe theorem include diameter bounds for images of curves, comparison of integrals of the average derivative and the operator norm of the horizontal differential, as well as the study of quasiconformal densities and metrics in domains in $\mathbb{H}_1$. The theorems are discussed for…
Uniformization of metric surfaces using isothermal coordinates
2021
We establish a uniformization result for metric surfaces - metric spaces that are topological surfaces with locally finite Hausdorff 2-measure. Using the geometric definition of quasiconformality, we show that a metric surface that can be covered by quasiconformal images of Euclidean domains is quasiconformally equivalent to a Riemannian surface. To prove this, we construct suitable isothermal coordinates.
Conformal equivalence of visual metrics in pseudoconvex domains
2017
We refine estimates introduced by Balogh and Bonk, to show that the boundary extensions of isometries between smooth strongly pseudoconvex domains in $\C^n$ are conformal with respect to the sub-Riemannian metric induced by the Levi form. As a corollary we obtain an alternative proof of a result of Fefferman on smooth extensions of biholomorphic mappings between pseudoconvex domains. The proofs are inspired by Mostow's proof of his rigidity theorem and are based on the asymptotic hyperbolic character of the Kobayashi or Bergman metrics and on the Bonk-Schramm hyperbolic fillings.
Equivalence of quasiregular mappings on subRiemannian manifolds via the Popp extension
2016
We show that all the common definitions of quasiregular mappings $f\colon M\to N$ between two equiregular subRiemannian manifolds of homogeneous dimension $Q\geq 2$ are quantitatively equivalent with precise dependences of the quasiregularity constants. As an immediate consequence, we obtain that if $f$ is $1$-quasiregular according to one of the definitions, then it is also $1$-quasiregular according to any other definition. In particular, this recovers a recent theorem of Capogna et al. on the equivalence of $1$-quasiconformal mappings. Our main results answer affirmatively a few open questions from the recent research. The main new ingredient in our proofs is the distortion estimates for…
Elementary deformations and the hyperK\"ahler-quaternionic K\"ahler correspondence
2014
The hyperK\"ahler-quaternionic K\"ahler correspondence constructs quaternionic K\"ahler metrics from hyperK\"ahler metrics with a rotating circle symmetry. We discuss how this may be interpreted as a combination of the twist construction with the concept of elementary deformation, surveying results of our forthcoming paper. We outline how this leads to a uniqueness statement for the above correspondence and indicate how basic examples of c-map constructions may be realised in this context.
The linearized Calder\'on problem on complex manifolds
2018
In this note we show that on any compact subdomain of a K\"ahler manifold that admits sufficiently many global holomorphic functions, the products of harmonic functions form a complete set. This gives a positive answer to the linearized anisotropic Calder\'on problem on a class of complex manifolds that includes compact subdomains of Stein manifolds and sufficiently small subdomains of K\"ahler manifolds. Some of these manifolds do not admit limiting Carleman weights, and thus cannot by treated by standard methods for the Calder\'on problem in higher dimensions. The argument is based on constructing Morse holomorphic functions with approximately prescribed critical points. This extends resu…
Nonexistence of Quasiconformal Maps Between Certain Metric Measure Spaces
2013
We provide new conditions that ensure that two metric measure spaces are not quasiconformally equivalent. As an application, we deduce that there exists no quasiconformal map between the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg and roto-translation groups.
