Absolute Lipschitz extendability

Open publisher page 12 citations

Abstract

A metric space X is said to be absolutely Lipschitz extendable if every Lipschitz function f from X into any Banach space Z can be extended to any containing space Y ⊇ X , where the loss in the Lipschitz constant in the extension is independent of Y , Z , and f . We show that various classes of natural metric spaces are absolutely Lipschitz extendable.
