$L^{1}_{loc}$-convergence of Jacobians of Sobolev homeomorphisms via area formula
Abstract
We prove that given a sequence of homeomorphisms $f_k: \Omega \to \mathbb{R}^n$ convergent in $W^{1,p}(\Omega, \mathbb{R}^n)$, $p \geq 1$ for $n =2$ and $p > n-1$ for $n \geq 3$, to a homeomorphism $f$ which maps sets of measure zero onto sets of measure zero, Jacobians $Jf_k$ converge to $Jf$ in $L^1_{loc}(\Omega)$. We prove it via Federer's area formula and investigation of when $|f_k(E)| \to |f(E)|$ as $k \to \infty$ for Borel subsets $E \Subset \Omega$.
