Abstract

We provide an example of a zero-dimensional compact metric space XX and its closed subspace AA such that there is no continuous linear extension operator for the Lipschitz pseudometrics on AA to the Lipschitz pseudometrics on XX. The construction is based on results of A. Brudnyi and Yu. Brudnyi concerning linear extension operators for Lipschitz functions.
