Abstract

Let (Ω,A,μ)(\Omega, \mathfrak{A}, \mu) and (Γ,B,ν)(\Gamma, \mathfrak{B}, \nu) be two arbitrary measure spaces, and p[1,]p\in [1,\infty]. Set Lp(μ)+sp:={fLp(μ):fp=1;f0 μ-a.e.}L^p(\mu)_+^\mathrm{sp}:= \{f\in L^p(\mu): \|f\|_p =1; f\geq 0\ \mu\text{-a.e.} \} i.e., the positive part of the unit sphere of Lp(μ)L^p(\mu). We show that every metric preserving bijection Φ:Lp(μ)+spLp(ν)+sp\Phi: L^p(\mu)_+^\mathrm{sp} \to L^p(\nu)_+^\mathrm{sp} can be extended (necessarily uniquely) to an isometric order isomorphism from Lp(μ)L^p(\mu) onto Lp(ν)L^p(\nu). A Lamperti form, i.e., a weighted composition like form, of Φ\Phi is provided, when (Γ,B,ν)(\Gamma, \mathfrak{B}, \nu) is localizable (in particular, when it is σ\sigma-finite). On the other hand, we show that for compact Hausdorff spaces XX and YY, if Φ\Phi is a metric preserving bijection from the positive part of the unit sphere of C(X)C(X) to that of C(Y)C(Y), then there is a homeomorphism τ:YX\tau:Y\to X satisfying Φ(f)(y)=f(τ(y))\Phi(f)(y) = f(\tau(y)) (fC(X)+sp;yYf\in C(X)_+^\mathrm{sp}; y\in Y).
