Outline of Research at the Start

We propose to study the reduced assumptions on the spaces and homeomorphism to ensure the Sobolev regularity and related applications of the regularity results. We aim to develop new techniques systematically for achieving analytic properties and study the applications on metric measure spaces.

Outline of Final Research Achievements

We developed new techniques and obtained the Sobolev regularity of metric quasiconformal mappings under reduced assumptions on the metric measure spaces and homeomorphism. We further applied the results to study the preservation of sets of measure zero of the mappings. We also obtained new characterizations of functions of bounded variation and Sobolev functions via nonlocal functionals in metric spaces equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a Poincare inequality. In a side project, we study a PDE-based approach to the horizontally quasiconvex envelope of a given continuous function in the Heisenberg group.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

Our main results complement the theory of Sobolev regularity of quasiconformal mappings on a large class of weighted spaces and a wider class of mappings. The results can bring new insights to related existing questions and applications can be expected in physics or nonlinear elasticity.
