We show that inclusions of $p$-metric spaces always produce genuine linear embeddings at the level of Lipschitz-free $p$-spaces. More precisely, for every $0<p<1$ and every inclusion $ \mathit{N}\subset \mathit{M}$ of $p$-metric spaces, the…

Estimates of Kolmogorov $n$-widths $d_n(B_p^r, L^q)$ and linear $n$-widths $\da_n(B_p^r, L^q)$, ($1\leq q\leq \infty$) of Sobolev's classes $B_p^r$, ($r>0$, $1\leq p\leq \infty$) on compact two-point homogeneous spaces (CTPHS) are…

In this note we show that gradient of Harmonic functions on a smooth domain with Lipschitz boundary values is pointwise bounded by a universal function which is in $L^p$ for all finite $p\geq 1$.

We prove that every continuous mapping from a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^{m}$ can be uniformly approximated by $C^\infty$ smooth mappings {\em with no critical points}. This kind of result can be…

We characterize cofinally Bourbaki quasi-complete metric spaces and their completions in terms of certain Lipschitz-type functions. To this end, we introduce and study a new class of functions, namely strongly uniformly locally Lipschitz…

We prove some results on weakly almost square Banach spaces and their relatives. On the one hand, we discuss weak almost squareness in the setting of Banach function spaces. More precisely, let $(\Omega,\Sigma)$ be a measurable space, let…

We introduce the notion of approximate norm attainment set of a bounded linear operator between Banach spaces and use it to obtain a complete characterization of smooth points in the space of compact linear operators, provided the domain…

Given a piecewise linear (PL) function $p$ defined on an open subset of $\R^n$, one may construct by elementary means a unique polyhedron with multiplicities $\D(p)$ in the cotangent bundle $\R^n\times \R^{n*}$ representing the graph of the…

We prove that every continuous function on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space X can be uniformly approximated by smooth functions with no critical points. This kind of result can be regarded as a sort of very strong approximate…

We characterize the metric spaces whose free space has the bounded approximation property through a Lipschitz analogue of the local reflexivity principle. We show that there exist compact metric spaces whose free spaces fail the…

In this note, in particular, we establish the following result: Let $X$ be a real Banach space, $\varphi\in X^*\setminus \{0\}$ and $\psi:X\to {\bf R}$ a Lipschitzian functional with Lipschitz constant equal to $\varphi\|_X^{*}$. Then, we…

We prove that if X is an infinite-dimensional Banach space with C^p smooth partitions of unity, then X and X\K are C^p diffeomorphic, for every weakly compact subset K of X.

Given a porous compact $K \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and a continuity modulus $\omega$, we prove a quantitative Jackson-Bernstein type theorem on harmonic approximation. That is, a function $f$ belongs to the class $\mathrm{Lip}_{\omega}(K)$ if…

Direct and inverse approximation theorems are proved in the Besicovitch-Stepanets spaces $B{\mathcal S}^{p}$ of almost periodic functions in terms of the best approximations of functions and their generalized moduli of smoothness.

We conjecture that whenever $M$ is a metric space of density at most continuum, then the space of Lipschitz functions is $w^*$-separable. We prove the conjecture for several classes of metric spaces including all the Banach spaces with a…

It is shown that the weak $L^p$ spaces $\ell^{p,\infty}, L^{p,\infty}[0,1]$, and $L^{p,\infty}[0,\infty)$ are isomorphic as Banach spaces.

In this paper, we study a class of Banach spaces, called \phi-spaces. In a natural way, we associate a measure of weak compactness in such spaces and prove an analogue of Sadovskii fixed point theorem for weakly sequentially continuous…

We provide a new, short proof of the density in energy of Lipschitz functions into the metric Sobolev space defined by using plans with barycenter (and thus, a fortiori, into the Newtonian-Sobolev space). Our result covers first-order…

For a metric space $X$, we study the space $D^{\infty}(X)$ of bounded functions on $X$ whose infinitesimal Lipschitz constant is uniformly bounded. $D^{\infty}(X)$ is compared with the space $\LIP^{\infty}(X)$ of bounded Lipschitz functions…

We provide some new consequences on the Lipschitz numerical radius and index which were introduced recently. More precisely, we give some renorming results on the Lipschitz numerical index, introduce a concept of Lipschitz numerical radius…
