Inverse Inequality

As known, the modulus method is one of the most powerful research tools in the theory of mappings. Distortion of modulus has an important role in the study of conformal and quasiconformal mappings, mappings with bounded and finite distortion, mappings with finite length distortion, etc. In particular, an important fact is the lower distortion of the modulus under mappings. Such relations are called inverse Poletsky inequalities and are one of the main objects of our study. The use of these inequalities is fully justified by the fact that the inverse inequality of Poletsky is a direct (upper) inequality for the inverse mappings, if there exist. If the mapping has a bounded distortion, then the corresponding majorant in inverse Poletsky inequality is equal to the product of the maximum multiplicity of the mapping on its dilatation. For more general classes of mappings, a similar majorant is equal to the sum of the values of outer dilatations over all preimages of the fixed point. It the class of quasiconformal mappings there is no significance between the inverse and direct inequalities of Poletsky, since the upper distortion of the modulus implies the corresponding below distortion and vice versa. The situation significantly changes for mappings with unbounded characteristics, for which the corresponding fact does not hold. The most important case investigated in this paper refers to the situation when the mappings have an unbounded dilatation. The article investigates the local and boundary behavior of mappings with branching that satisfy the inverse inequality of Poletsky with some integrable majorant. It is proved that mappings of this type are logarithmically Holder continuous at each inner point of the domain. Note that the Holder continuity is slightly weaker than the classical Holder continuity, which holds for quasiconformal mappings. Simple examples show that mappings of finite distortion are not Lipschitz continuous even under bounded dilatation. Another subject of research of the article is boundary behavior of mappings. In particular, a continuous extension of the mappings with the inverse Poletsky inequality is obtained. In addition, we obtained the conditions under which the families of these mappings are equicontinuous inside and at the boundary of the domain. Several cases are considered: when the preimage of a fixed continuum under mappings is separated from the boundary, and when the mappings satisfy normalization conditions. The text contains a significant number of examples that demonstrate the novelty and content of the results. In particular, examples of mappings with branching that satisfy the inverse Poletsky inequality, have unbounded characteristics, and for which the statements of the basic theorems are satisfied, are given.

Homeomorphic Solution

Boundary value problems for the Beltrami equations are due to the famous Riemann dissertation (1851) in the simplest case of analytic functions and to the known works of Hilbert (1904, 1924) and Poincare (1910) for the corresponding Cauchy--Riemann system. Of course, the Dirichlet problem was well studied for uniformly elliptic systems, see, e.g., \cite{Boj} and \cite{Vekua}. Moreover, the corresponding results on the Dirichlet problem for degenerate Beltrami equations in the unit disk can be found in the monograph \cite{GRSY}. In our article \cite{KPR1}, see also \cite{KPR3} and \cite{KPR5}, it was shown that each generalized homeomorphic solution of a Beltrami equation is the so-called lower $Q-$homeomorphism with its dilatation quotient as $Q$ and developed on this basis the theory of the boundary behavior of such solutions. In the next papers \cite{KPR2} and \cite{KPR4}, the latter made possible us to solve the Dirichlet problem with continuous boundary data for a wide circle of degenerate Beltrami equations in finitely connected Jordan domains, see also [\citen{KPR5}--\citen{KPR7}]. Similar problems were also investigated in the case of bounded finitely connected domains in terms of prime ends by Caratheodory in the papers [\citen{KPR9}--\citen{KPR10}] and [\citen{P1}--\citen{P2}]. Finally, in the present paper, we prove a series of effective criteria for the existence of pseudo\-re\-gu\-lar and multi-valued solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the degenerate Beltrami equations in arbitrary bounded finitely connected domains in terms of prime ends by Caratheodory.
