Abstract

Let MM be a compact subset of a superreflexive Banach space. We prove that the Lipschitz-free space F(M)\mathcal{F}(M), the predual of the Banach space of Lipschitz functions on MM, has the Pe{\l}czy\'nski's property (VV^\ast). As a consequence, the Lipschitz-free space F(M)\mathcal{F}(M) is weakly sequentially complete.
