Opis

In this book we introduce the class of mappings of finite distortion as a generalization of the class of mappings of bounded distortion. Connections with models of nonlinear elasticity are also discussed. We study continuity properties, behavior of our mappings on null sets, topological properties like openness and discreteness, regularity of the potential inverse mappings and many other aspects.

Recenzje

From the book reviews:

"This book provides a detailed and organized study of mappings of finite distortion. It would be useful to anyone interested in this topic. Numerous open problems are posed and relevant references are provided throughout." (David Matthew Freeman, Mathematical Reviews, January, 2015)
