Description

The basic theory of quasiconformal mappings in the plane, including connections to various fields such as harmonic analysis and partial differential equations. Central topics include the Beltrami equation, Beurling transform, measurable Riemann mapping theorem, and regularity of quasiconformal mappings.

Learning outcomes

The students know the definition and basic properties of quasiconformal mappings in the plane and they are familiar with characteristic aspects of the planar theory, such as the measurable Riemann mapping theorem. The students also learn how the theory is connected to other fields of mathematics.

Description of prerequisites

Measure and integration theory 1 and 2, Complex analysis 1 and 2
