Course description and aims
We introduce to plane quasiconformal mappings. The notion of quasiconformal mappings generalizes that of conformal mappings and it plays an important role in complex dynamics, Kleinian groups and Teichmueller theory as well as the classical function theory. The quasiconformal mappings look artificial in its definition. However, it appears naturally in complex analysis. In this series of lectures, after a brief introduction to the definition and basic properties of quasiconformal mappings, we will prove the measurable Riemann mapping theorem, which is the most fundamental existence result in the theory. If time permits, we will mention the lambda lemma and Teichmueller spaces.
In order to understand quasiconformal mappings and their existence result, we need knowledge about advanced analysis such as theories of measures, extremal lengths and singular integral operators. Therefore, trying to understand the theory of quasiconformal mappings will, in turn, provide opportunities to observe how such advanced theories are applied to concrete examples.
Student learning outcomes
1. Understand the definitions of quasiconformal mappings and be able to determine whether a given map is quasiconformal.
2. Understand the proof of the measurable Riemann mapping theorem.
3. Know about applications of quasiconformal mappings.
