Abstract

A new Möbius-invariant metric δG defined on an open set G[Rmacron]n with at least two boundary points is introduced. This metric coincides with the hyperbolic metric if G is the unit ball. Some inequalities between this and other metrics are proved.

The behaviour of δG under K-quasiconformal maps is also studied. In particular, a generalization of the Schwarz lemma is obtained for K-quasiconformal maps defined on quasiballs.
