Mori's exact constant conjecture for planar quasiconformal maps

About 17 years old · traced to

Let QCKQC_K be the family of all KK-quasiconformal self-maps of the unit disk B2\mathbf{B}^2 that fix the origin, and let M(2,K)M(2,K) be the least constant such that

∣f(x)−f(y)∣≤M(2,K)∣x−y∣K−1,|f(x)-f(y)|\leq M(2,K)|x-y|^{K^{-1}},

for every f∈QCKf\in QC_K and x,y∈B2x,y\in\mathbf{B}^2. Mori's conjecture.

M(2,K)=161−1/K.M(2,K)=16^{1-1/K}.

The conjecture refines Mori's bound M(2,K)≤16M(2,K)\leq 16 by incorporating the exact value at K=1K=1; it was still open in 2009.
