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…

Given a pointed metric space $M$, we study when there exist $n$-dimensional linear subspaces of $\operatorname{Lip}_0(M)$ consisting of strongly norm-attaining Lipschitz functionals, for $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We show that this is always the…

A metric space $X$ is {\em injective} if every non-expanding map $f:B\to X$ defined on a subspace $B$ of a metric space $A$ can be extended to a non-expanding map $\bar f:A\to X$. We prove that a metric space $X$ is a Lipschitz image of an…

We show the existence of Lipschitz-free spaces verifying the Point of Continuity Property with arbitrarily high weak-fragmentability index. For this purpose, we use a generalized construction of the countably branching diamond graphs. As a…

We construct a complete metric space $M$ of cardinality continuum such that every non-singleton closed separable subset of $M$ fails to be a Lipschitz retract of $M$. This provides a metric analogue to the various classical and recent…

We show that for every complete metric space $M$ there exists another complete metric space $N$ of the same density character such that the curve-flat quotient of $N$ is isometric to $M$. Moreover, we show that if $M$ is compact and…

Let $M$ be a separable metric space. We say that $f=(f_n):M\to c_0$ is a good-$\lambda$-embedding if, whenever $x,y\in M$, $x\ne y$ implies $d(x,y)\le\Vert f(x)-f(y)\Vert$ and, for each $n$, $Lip(f_n)<\lambda$, where $Lip(f_n)$ denotes the…

We prove that for every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a metric space $(X,d_X)$, an $n$-point subset $S\subseteq X$, a Banach space $(Z,\|\cdot\|_Z)$ and a $1$-Lipschitz function $f:S\to Z$ such that the Lipschitz constant of every function…

We prove that in a Euclidean space of dimension at least two, there exists a compact set of Lebesgue measure zero such that any real-valued Lipschitz function defined on the space is differentiable at some point in the set. Such a set is…

We prove that the positive mass theorem applies to Lipschitz metrics as long as the singular set is low-dimensional, with no other conditions on the singular set. More precisely, let $g$ be an asymptotically flat Lipschitz metric on a…

We consider convex series of molecules in Lipschitz-free spaces, i.e. elements of the form $\mu=\sum_n \lambda_n \frac{\delta_{x_n}-\delta_{y_n}}{d(x_n,y_n)}$ such that $\|\mu\|=\sum_n |\lambda_n |$. We characterise these elements in terms…

Any Lipschitz map $f : M \to N$ between two pointed metric spaces may be extended in a unique way to a bounded linear operator $\widehat{f} : \mathcal F(M) \to \mathcal F(N)$ between their corresponding Lipschitz-free spaces. In this paper,…

We give a metric characterisation of when the Lipschitz-free space over a separable ultrametric space is a dual Banach space. In the case where the Lipschitz-free space has a predual, we show that this predual is M-embedded if and only if…

We prove that if $M$ is an infinite complete metric space then the set of strongly norm-attaining Lipschitz functions $\SA(M)$ contains a linear subspace isomorphic to $c_0$. This solves an open question posed by V. Kadets and O. Rold\'an.

A classical result of Milman roughly states that every Lipschitz function on $\mathbb{S}^n$ is almost constant on a sufficiently high-dimensional sphere $\mathbb{S}^m\subset \mathbb{S}^n$. In this paper we extend the result by proving that…
