Let $\|\cdot\|$ be a norm on $\mathbb{R}^N$ and let $M$ be a closed $C^1$-submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^N$. Consider the pointed metric space $(M,d)$, where $d$ is the metric given by $d(x,y)=\|x-y\|$, $x,y\in M$. Then the Lipschitz-free space…
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…
Let $K=2^\mathbb{N}$ be the Cantor set, let $\mathcal{M}$ be the set of all metrics $d$ on $K$ that give its usual (product) topology, and equip $\mathcal{M}$ with the topology of uniform convergence, where the metrics are regarded as…
Let $T$ be a compact, metrisable and strongly countable-dimensional topological space. Let $\mathcal{M}^T$ be the set of all metrics $d$ on $T$ compatible with its topology, and equip $\mathcal{M}^T$ with the topology of uniform…
Let $T$ be a topological space admitting a compatible proper metric, that is, a locally compact, separable and metrisable space. Let $\mathcal{M}^T$ be the non-empty set of all proper metrics $d$ on $T$ compatible with its topology, and…
We prove a general principle satisfied by weakly precompact sets of Lipschitz-free spaces. By this principle, certain infinite dimensional phenomena in Lipschitz-free spaces over general metric spaces may be reduced to the same phenomena in…
We prove that for any separable Banach space $X$, there exists a compact metric space which is homeomorphic to the Cantor space and whose Lipschitz-free space contains a complemented subspace isomorphic to $X$. As a consequence we give an…
We prove that the Lipschitz free space over a certain type of discrete metric space has the Radon-Nikod\'ym property. We also show that the Lipschitz free space over a complete, locally compact metric space has the Schur or approximation…
We study Lipschitz-free spaces over compact and uniformly discrete metric spaces enjoying certain high regularity properties - having group structure with left-invariant metric. Using methods of harmonic analysis we show that, given a…
We prove that the Lipschitz-free space over a countable compact metric space is isometric to a dual space and has the metric approximation property.
We consider subsets $S$ of a metric space $M$ such that Lipschitz mappings defined on $S$ can be extended to Lipschitz mappings on $M$, and we show that the union of such subsets has the same property under appropriate geometric conditions.…
In the present paper we introduce and study the Lipschitz retractional structure of metric spaces. This topic was motivated by the analogous projectional structure of Banach spaces, a topic that has been thoroughly investigated. The more…
The geometric analysis of non-locally convex quasi-Banach spaces presents rich and nuanced challenges. In this paper, we introduce the Schur $p$-property and the strong Schur $p$-property for $0 < p \leq 1$, providing new tools to deepen…
In this paper, we introduce and study a Lipschitz version of the Bishop-Phelps-Bollob\'as property (Lip-BPB property). This property deals with the possibility of making a uniformly simultaneous approximation of a Lipschitz map $F$ and a…
We call a closed subset M of a Banach space X a free basis of X if it contains the null vector and every Lipschitz map from M to a Banach space Y, which preserves the null vectors can be uniquely extended to a bounded linear map from X to…
Let ${\mathfrak M}=({\mathcal M},\rho)$ be a metric space and let $X$ be a Banach space. Let $F$ be a set-valued mapping from ${\mathcal M}$ into the family ${\mathcal K}_m(X)$ of all compact convex subsets of $X$ of dimension at most $m$.…
In this note we study the structure of Lipschitz-free Banach spaces. We show that every Lipschitz-free Banach space over an infinite metric space contains a complemented copy of $\ell_1$. This result has many consequences for the structure…
We present a way to turn an arbitrary (unbounded) metric space $\mathcal{M}$ into a bounded metric space $\mathcal{B}$ in such a way that the corresponding Lipschitz-free spaces $\mathcal{F}(\mathcal{M})$ and $\mathcal{F}(\mathcal{B})$ are…
We give several structural results concerning the Lipschitz-free spaces $\mathcal F(M)$, where $M$ is a metric space. We show that $\mathcal F(M)$ contains a complemented copy of $\ell_1(\Gamma)$, where $\Gamma=\text{dens}(M)$. If $\mathcal…
We characterize compact metric spaces whose locally flat Lipschitz functions separate points uniformly as exactly those that are purely 1-unrectifiable, resolving a problem of Weaver. We subsequently use this geometric characterization to…
