Abstract

We study the well-known Beltrami equation under the assumption that its measurable complex-valued coefficient μ(z) has the norm ∥μ∥ = 1. Sufficient conditions for the existence of a homeomorphic solution to the Beltrami equation on the Riemann sphere are given in terms of the directional dilatation coefficients of μ. A uniqueness theorem is also proved when the singular set Sing(μ) of μ is contained in a totally disconnected compact set with an additional thinness condition on Sing(μ).
