Removability and non-injectivity of conformal welding (1703.00974v1)
Published 2 Mar 2017 in math.CV
Abstract: We construct a (non-removable) Jordan curve $\Gamma$ and a non-M\"{o}bius homeomorphism of the Riemann sphere which is conformal on the complement of $\Gamma$ and maps the curve $\Gamma$ onto itself. The curve is flexible in the sense of Bishop and may be taken to have zero area. The existence of such curves and conformal homeomorphisms is closely related to the non-injectivity of conformal welding.
