The main subject is the study of the stability problem in Liouville's theorem on conformal mappings in space, which is representative of a number of problems on stability for transformation classes. To enable this investigation a wide range of mathematical tools has been developed which incorporate the calculus of variation, estimates for differential operators like Korn inequalities, properties of functions with bounded mean oscillation, etc. Results obtained by others researching similar topics are mentioned, and a survey is given of publications treating relevant questions or involving the technique proposed. This volume will be of great value to graduate students and researchers interested in geometric function theory. |

| Publisher Description: 1. Preliminaries, Notation, and Terminology n n 1.1. Sets and functions in lR. - Throughout the book, lR. stands for the n-dimensional arithmetic space of points x = (X}, X2, '", xn)j Ixl is the length of n n a vector x E lR. and (x, y) is the scalar product of vectors x and y in lR., i.e., for x = (Xl, X2, -.-, xn) and y = (y}, Y2, --., Yn), Ixl = Jx + x + ... + x, (x, y) = XIYl + X2Y2 + ... + XnYn. n Given arbitrary points a and b in lR., we denote by a, b] the segment that joins n them, i.e. the collection of points x E lR. of the form x = >.a + I'b, where>. + I' = 1 and >. 0, I' O. n We denote by ei, i = 1,2, ..., n, the vector in lR. whose ith coordinate is equal to 1 and the others vanish. The vectors el, e2, ..., en form a basis for the space n lR., which is called canonical. If P( x) is some proposition in a variable x and A is a set, then {x E A I P(x)} denotes the collection of all the elements of A for which the proposition P( x) is true. |
