The image of the branch set of a piecewise linear (PL)‐branched cover between PL 𝑛n‐manifolds is a simplicial (𝑛−2)(n−2)‐complex. We demonstrate that the reverse implication also holds: an open and discrete map 𝑓:𝕊𝑛→𝕊𝑛f:Sn→Sn with the image of the branch set contained in a simplicial (𝑛−2)(n−2)‐complex is equivalent up to homeomorphism to a PL‐branched cover.

Mappings of Finite Distortion : Compactness of the Branch Set
Kauranen, Aapo; Luisto, Rami; Tengvall, Ville (Hebrew University Magnes Press; Springer, 2021)We show that an entire branched cover of finite distortion cannot have a compact branch set if its distortion satisfies a certain asymptotic growth condition. We furthermore show that this bound is strict by constructing ... -
Existence of homoclinic orbits and heteroclinic cycle in a class of three-dimensional piecewise linear systems with three switching manifolds
Zhu, Bin; Wei, Zhouchao; Escalante-González, R.J.; Kuznetsov, Nikolay V. (American Institute of Physics, 2020)In this article, we construct a kind of three-dimensional piecewise linear (PWL) system with three switching manifolds and obtain four theorems with regard to the existence of a homoclinic orbit and a heteroclinic cycle ... -
Controlled diffeomorphic extension of homeomorphisms
Koskela, Pekka; Wang, Zhuang; Xu, Haiqing (Pergamon Press, 2018)Let Ω be an internal chord-arc Jordan domain and φ:S→∂Ω be a homeomorphism. We show that φ has finite dyadic energy if and only if φ has a diffeomorphic extension h:D→Ω which has finite energy. -

Mappings of finite distortion : size of the branch set
Guo, Chang-Yu; Hencl, Stanislav; Tengvall, Ville (De Gruyter, 2020)We study the branch set of a mapping between subsets of Rn, i.e., the set where a given mapping is not defining a local homeomorphism. We construct several sharp examples showing that the branch set or its image can have ...
