Abstract

The classical inverse function theorem gives conditions under which a C r function admits (locally) a C inverse. The purpose of this article is to give conditions under which a Lipschitzian (not necessarily differentiable) function admits (locally) a Lipschitzian inverse. The classical result is a special case of the theorem.
