English We investigate basic properties of mappings of finite distortion f : X → R2, where
X is any metric surface, i.e., metric space homeomorphic to a planar domain with
locally finite 2-dimensional Hausdorff measure.We introduce lower gradients, which
complement the upper gradients of Heinonen and Koskela, to study the distortion of
non-homeomorphic maps on metric spaces. We extend the Iwaniec-Šverák theorem
to metric surfaces: a non-constant f : X → R2 with locally square integrable upper
gradient and locally integrable distortion is continuous, open and discrete. We also
extend the Hencl-Koskela theorem by showing that if f is moreover injective then
f −1 is a Sobolev map.
