Abstract

It is shown that the approximate continuity of the dilatation matrix of a quasiregular mapping f at x0 implies the local injectivity and the asymptotic linearity of f at x0. Sufficient conditions for log|f(x)-f(x0)| to behave asymptotically as log|x-x0| are given. Some global injectivity results are derived.
