Invertibility of Sobolev mappings under minimal hypotheses
Annales de l'I.H.P. Analyse non linéaire, Volume 27 (2010) no. 2, pp. 517-528.

We prove a version of the Inverse Function Theorem for continuous weakly differentiable mappings. Namely, a nonconstant W 1,n mapping is a local homeomorphism if it has integrable inner distortion function and satisfies a certain differential inclusion. The integrability assumption is shown to be optimal.
