The purpose of the authors is to give a survey on the following kind of problems: Let \(X\) be a topological space, \(f\) and \(g\) real valued functions defined on \(X\), \(h: X\to X\) a homeomorphism; if \(f\) belongs to a class \(A\) of functions and \(g= f\circ h\), does \(g\) necessarily belong to \(A\)? If \(A\) and \(B\) are given classes of functions, does it exist, for any \(f\in A\), a homeomorphism \(h\) such that \(g= f\circ h\in B\)? In most of the results dealt with, \(X\) is \(\mathbb{R}^n\) (in particular, \(n=1\)) or an interval in \(\mathbb{R}^n\). As classes \(A\) and \(B\), various classes are considered (Baire classes, measurable functions, derivative functions, functions of bounded variation, functions with convergent (uniformly convergent, absolutely convergent) Fourier series, etc.). Besides classical results (e.g., Blumberg's famous theorem), a lot of recent results (many of them due to the authors) are considered. Sometimes the original proofs are replaced by more elementary ones, and the results discussed in detail are often completed by a series of related statements communicated without proofs. The reader is supposed to possess a thorough practice in real analysis.
