Conformal welding

It is well known that not every orientation-preserving homeomorphism of the circle to itself is a conformal welding, but in this paper we prove several results which state that every homeomorphism is “almost” a welding in a precise way. The proofs are based on Koebe’s circle domain theorem. We also give a new proof of the well known fact that quasisymmetric maps are conformal weldings. 1. Introduction Let D ⊂ R2 be the open unit disk, let D∗ = S 2 \D and let T = ∂D = ∂D∗ be the unit circle. ...
