Abstract
LetD andD′ be ring domains inB n, withS n−1 as one boundary component, and let\(f:\bar D \to \bar D'\) be a homeomorphism which isK-quasiconformal inD and withf(S n−1)=S n−1. According to a result of Gehringf÷S n−1 admits an extension\(g:\bar B^n \to \bar B^n \) which is quasiconformal inB n. We find here an upper bound for the dilatation ofg in terms ofn, K, and modD.
