Composition operator and Sobolev-Lorentz spaces \(WL^{n,q}\). (English) Zbl 1293.30050

Summary: Let \(\Omega,\Omega'\subset\mathbb R^n\) be domains and let \(f\colon\Omega\to\Omega'\) be a homeomorphism. We show that if the composition operator \(T_f\colon u\mapsto u\circ f\) maps the Sobolev-Lorentz space \(WL^{n,q}(\Omega')\) to \(WL^{n,q}(\Omega)\) for some \(q\neq n\) then \(f\) must be a locally bilipschitz mapping.
