The problem involving the extension of functions from a certain class and defined on subdomains of the ambient space to the whole space is an old and a well investigated theme in analysis. A related question whether the extensions that…

Over the real or complex field, we establish a duality formula for projection constants of finite-codimensional subspaces of Banach spaces with the Daugavet property. If \[ Y=\bigcap_{j=1}^n \ker f_j \subset X, \qquad…

Fixed-point equations with Lipschitz operators have been studied for more than a century, and are central to problems in mathematical optimization, game theory, economics, and dynamical systems, among others. When the Lipschitz constant of…

We study expansion/contraction properties of some common classes of mappings of the Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^n, n\ge 2\,,$ with respect to the distance ratio metric. The first main case is the behavior of M\"obius transformations of the…

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…

Lipschitz constants for the width and diameter functions of a convex body in $\mathbb R^n$ are found in terms of its diameter and thickness (maximum and minimum of both functions). Also, a dual approach to thickness is proposed.

Let $E$ be an arbitrary subset of a Banach space $X$, $f: E \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a function, and $G:E \rightrightarrows X^*$ be a set-valued mapping. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on $f, G$ for the existence of a…

In this paper, we use the Mordukhovich derivatives to precisely find the covering constants for the metric projection operator onto nonempty closed and convex subsets in uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach spaces. We consider three…

Let $X$ be a separable Banach space with a separating polynomial. We show that there exists $C\geq 1$ (depending only on $X$) such that for every Lipschitz function $f:X\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, and every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a…

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…

It is shown here that if $(Y,\|\cdot\|_Y)$ is a Banach space in which martingale differences are unconditional (a UMD Banach space) then there exists $c=c(Y)\in (0,\infty)$ with the following property. For every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ and…

Let {\mathbb{V} = V x R^l : V \in G(n-l,m-l)} be the family of m-dimensional subspaces of R^n containing {0} x R^l, and let \pi_{\mathbb{V}} : R^n --> \mathbb{V} be the orthogonal projection onto \mathbb{V}. We prove that the mapping V…

We show that if there exists a Lipschitz homeomorphism $T$ between the nets in the Banach spaces $C(X)$ and $C(Y)$ of continuous real valued functions on compact spaces $X$ and $Y$, then the spaces $X$ and $Y$ are homeomorphic provided…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and let $(\xi_j)_{j\ge 1}$ be an i.i.d. sequence of symmetric random variables with finite moments of all orders. We prove that the following assertions are equivalent: (1). There exists a constant $K$ such that $$…

We study the problem of extending an order-preserving real-valued Lipschitz map defined on a subset of a partially ordered metric space without increasing its Lipschitz constant and preserving its monotonicity. We show that a certain type…

The main goal of the paper is to provide a quantitative lower bound greater than $1$ for the relative projection constant $\lambda(Y, X)$, where $X$ is a subspace of $\ell_{2p}^m$ space and $Y \subset X$ is an arbitrary hyperplane. As a…

We characterize the Banach spaces X such that Ext(X, C(K))=0 for every compact space.

Let $X$ be a separable real Hilbert space. We show that for every Lipschitz function $f:X\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, and for every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a Lipschitz, real analytic function $g:X\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ such that…

The most fundamental notion in frame theory is the frame expansion of a vector. Although it is well known that these expansions are unconditionally convergent series, no characterizations of the unconditional constant were known. This has…

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…
