Abstract

We show that if there exists a Lipschitz homeomorphism TT between the nets in the Banach spaces C(X)C(X) and C(Y)C(Y) of continuous real valued functions on compact spaces XX and YY, then the spaces XX and YY are homeomorphic provided l(T)×l(T1)<6/5l(T) \times l(T^{-1})< 6/5. By l(T)l(T) and l(T1)l(T^{-1}) we denote the Lipschitz constants of the maps TT and T1T^{-1}. This improves the classical result of Jarosz and the recent result of Dutrieux and Kalton where the constant obtained is 17/16. We also estimate the distance of the map TT from the isometry of the spaces C(X)C(X) and C(Y)C(Y).
