Abstract

Let us consider a Banach space XX with the property that every real-valued Lipschitz function ff can be uniformly approximated by a Lipschitz, C1C^1-smooth function gg with \Lip(g)C\Lip(f)\Lip(g)\le C \Lip(f) (with CC depending only on the space XX). This is the case for a Banach space XX bi-Lipschitz homeomorphic to a subset of c0(Γ)c_0(\Gamma), for some set Γ\Gamma, such that the coordinate functions of the homeomorphism are C1C^1-smooth. Then, we prove that for every closed subspace YXY\subset X and every C1C^1-smooth (Lipschitz) function f:Y\Realf:Y\to\Real, there is a C1C^1-smooth (Lipschitz, respectively) extension of ff to XX. We also study C1C^1-smooth extensions of real-valued functions defined on closed subsets of XX.
