Abstract
We construct homotopically non-trivial maps from S[superscript m] to S[superscript m−1] with arbitrarily small k-dilation for each k > [(m + 1) over 2]. We prove that homotopically non-trivial maps from S[superscript m] to S[superscript m−1] cannot have arbitrarily small k-dilation for k ≤ [(m + 1) over 2].
