Abstract
We develop a theory of geometrically controlled branched covering maps between metric spaces that are generalized cohomology manifolds. Our notion extends that of maps of bounded length distortion, or BLD-maps, from Euclidean spaces. We give a construction that generalizes an extension theorem for branched covers by I. Berstein and A. Edmonds. We apply the theory and the construction to show that certain reasonable metric spaces that were shown by S. Semmes not to admit bi-Lipschitz parametrizations by a Euclidean space nevertheless admit BLD-maps into Euclidean space of same dimension.

Hyperelastic Deformations of Smallest Total Energy

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the problem of finding suitable free Lagrangians and using them for a specific stored energy function E in the plane, assuming that E is conformally coerced and polyconvex, and established the existence and global invertibility of the minimizers.

Sharpness of Rickman's Picard theorem in all dimensions

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that given a finite set of points and a quasiregular mapping, there exists a quasi-global mapping of points from a given set to a set of missing points.

Sobolev met Poincaré

TL;DR: In this article, the Poincare and Sobolev inequalities, pointwise estimates, and pointwise classifications of Soboleve classes are discussed. But they do not cover the necessary conditions for Poincarse inequalities.

Lectures on n-Dimensional Quasiconformal Mappings

TL;DR: The modulus of a curve family and the analytic properties of quasiconformal mappings have been studied in real analysis as discussed by the authors, where the modulus is defined as a function of the curve family modulus.
