Nonvanishing of Jacobians implies global injectivity?
The answer is NO. Consider the two-dimensional example $F=(f,g)$ with
$$
f(x,y) = \sqrt{2}e^{x/2}\cos(ye^{-x})
$$
$$
g(x,y) = \sqrt{2}e^{x/2}\sin(ye^{-x})
$$
The determinant of the Jacobian matrix is …

Three complex numbers $a,b,c$ in the complex plane form the vertices of an
equilateral triangle if and only if $~a^2 + b^2 + c^2 = ab + …
