Quasiconformality and hyperbolic skew

We prove that if $f:\mathbb{B}^n \to \mathbb{B}^n$ , for n ≥ 2, is a homeomorphism with bounded skew over all equilateral hyperbolic triangles, then f is in fact quasiconformal. Conversely, we show that if $f:\mathbb{B}^n \to \mathbb{B}^n$ is quasiconformal then f is η-quasisymmetric in the hyperbolic metric, where η depends only on n and K. We obtain the same result for hyperbolic n-manifolds. Analogous results in $\mathbb{R}^n$ , and metric spaces that behave like $\mathbb{R}^n$ , are known, but as far as we are aware, these are the first such results in the hyperbolic setting, which is the natural metric to use on $\mathbb{B}^n$ .
