Abstract
Ring homeomorphisms are studied and then applied to an extension of the known Lehto existence theorem for degenerate Beltrami equations. On the basis of this extension, we establish a series of new general integral and measure conditions on the complex coefficient for the existence of ACL homeomorphic solutions. These criteria imply many of the known existence theorems as well as new results.
