Let $(M,\rho)$ be a metric space and let $Y$ be a Banach space. Given a positive integer $m$, let $F$ be a set-valued mapping from $M$ into the family of all compact convex subsets of $Y$ of dimension at most $m$. In this paper we prove a…

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…

Let $\mathrm{Lip}_0(M)$ be the space of Lipschitz functions on a complete metric space $(M,d)$ that vanish at a point $0\in M$. We investigate its dual $\mathrm{Lip}_0(M)^*$ using the de Leeuw transform, which allows representing each…

We study a systematic way to produce a Lipschitz operator ideal from a Banach linear operator ideal $\mathcal A$. For maximal and minimal operator ideals $\mathcal A$, the Lipschitz maximal hull and minimal kernel of the Lipschitz operator…

Let $\lambda$ be an infinite cardinal number and let $\ell_\infty^c(\lambda)$ denote the subspace of $\ell_\infty(\lambda)$ consisting of all functions that assume at most countably many non-zero values. We classify all infinite dimensional…

We continue with the study of octahedral norms in the context of spaces of Lipschitz functions and in their duals. First, we prove that the norm of $\mathcal F(M)^{**}$ is octahedral as soon as $M$ is unbounded or is not uniformly discrete.…

Under the right conditions on a compact metric space $X$ and on a Banach space $E$, we give a description of the $2$-local (standard) isometries on the Banach space $\hbox{Lip}(X,E)$ of vector-valued Lipschitz functions from $X$ to $E$ in…

For a compact metric space $(K, \rho)$, the predual of $Lip(K, \rho)$ can be identified with the normed space $M(K)$ of finite (signed) Borel measures on $K$ equipped with the Kantorovich-Rubinstein norm, this is due to Kantorovich [20].…

This paper initiates the study of the structure of a new class of $p$-Banach spaces, $0<p<1$, namely the Lipschitz free $p$-spaces (alternatively called Arens-Eells $p$-spaces) $\mathcal{F}_{p}(\mathcal{M})$ over $p$-metric spaces. We…

We study the set $\operatorname{SNA}(M,Y)$ of those Lipschitz maps from a (complete pointed) metric space $M$ to a Banach space $Y$ which (strongly) attain their Lipschitz norm (i.e.\ the supremum defining the Lipschitz norm is a maximum).…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a class of Banach spaces and let $T=\{T_\alpha\}_{\alpha\in A}$ be a set of metric spaces. We say that $T$ is a set of {\it test-spaces} for $\mathcal{P}$ if the following two conditions are equivalent: (1)…

Let $X$ be a metric space with a base point $0$, and let $\mathrm{Lip}_0(X)$ be the Banach space of all Lipschitz functions $f:X\longrightarrow \mathbb R$ such that $f(0)=0$. Given a set of points $\left((x_i,y_i)\right)_{i\in I}$ in $X^2$…

A closed subset $M$ of a Banach space $E$ is \ep, i.e., can be represented locally as the epigraph of a Lipschitz function, if and only if it is the level set of some locally Lipschitz function $f: E\to \R$, wich Clarke's generalized…

The Lipschitz space of an infinite (locally-finite) graph is defined as the set of functions on the vertices of the graph such that the differences of the values between adjacent vertices remain bounded. In this paper we prove that this set…

Let (X, d) be a bounded metric space with a base point 0 X , (Y, $\bullet$) be a Banach space and Lip $\alpha$ 0 (X, Y) be the space of all $\alpha$-H{\"o}lderfunctions that vanish at 0 X , equipped with its natural norm (0 < $\alpha$ $\le$…

This note corrects a gap and improves results in an earlier paper by the first named author. More precisely, it is shown that on weakly compactly generated Banach spaces X which admit a C^{p} smooth norm, one can uniformly approximate…

We investigate the distance function $\boldsymbol{\delta}_{K}^{\phi}$ from an arbitrary closed subset $ K $ of a~finite-dimensional Banach space $ (\mathbf{R}^{n}, \phi) $, equipped with a uniformly convex $\mathcal{C}^{2}$-norm $ \phi $.…

In contrast to the usual Lipschitz seminorms associated to ordinary metrics on compact spaces, we show by examples that Lipschitz seminorms on possibly non-commutative compact spaces are usually not determined by the restriction of the…

With the aim to better understand the intricate geometry of the class of Lipschitz free $p$-spaces $\mathcal{F}_p(\mathcal{M})$ when $0<p<1$, in this note we study their Banach envelopes and prove that if $0<p<1$ and $ \mathcal{M}$ is a…

On complete metric spaces that support doubling measures, we show that the validity of a Rademacher theorem for Lipschitz functions can be characterised by Keith's "Lip-lip" condition. Roughly speaking, this means that at almost every…
