Volume preserving embeddings of open subsets of $R^n$ into manifolds

Abstract

We consider a connected smooth $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ endowed with a volume form $\Omega$, and we show that an open subset $U$ of $R^n$ of Lebesgue measure $\Vol (U)$ embeds into $M$ by a smooth volume preserving embedding whenever the volume condition $\Vol (U) \le \Vol (M,Ω)$ is met.
