Abstract

Let be a continuous mapping so that the components of the preimage of each are compact. We show that f is open and discrete if a.e. where and for a function Φ that satisfies and some technical conditions. This divergence condition on Φ is shown to be sharp.

Résumé

Soit une application continue telle que les composantes connexes de la préimage de tat point est compacte. On démontre que f est ouverte et discrète si p.p. oi et pour une fonction Φ telle que et vérifiant des conditions techniques. La condition de divergence de l'intégrale est optimale.
