Approximation properties in terms of Lipschitz maps
Volume 268 / 2023
Abstract
We investigate some approximation properties of Banach spaces which are described in terms of Lipschitz maps. First, we present characterizations of the Lipschitz approximation property, and prove that a Banach space $X$ has the approximation property whenever the Lipschitz-free space over $X$ has this property. Furthermore, we obtain a Lipschitz version of Grothendieck’s characterization of the classical approximation property. Second, we introduce the Lipschitz weak $\lambda $-bounded approximation property and show that it implies the classical weak $\lambda $-bounded approximation property. Finally, several equivalent formulations of the Lipschitz weak $\lambda $-bounded approximation property are obtained.
