In this paper, we prove that the unit sphere of the space $c_{0}$ is plastic, i.e., every non-expansive bijection from this sphere onto itself is an isometry.
This paper demonstrates the expand-contract plasticity of the unit spheres of $\ell_1$, $\ell_{\infty}$, and $c$. Furthermore, it establishes the strong plasticity of the unit spheres of Hilbert spaces.
A metric space is plastic if all its non-expansive bijections are isometries. We prove three main results: (1) every countable dense subspace of a normed space is not plastic, (2) every $k$-crowded separable metric space contains a plastic dense subspace, and (3) every strictly convex separable metric group contains a plastic dense subgroup.
The article deals with plastic and non-plastic sub-spaces $A$ of the real line ${\mathbb{R}}$ with the usual Euclidean metric $d$. It investigates non-expansive bijections, proves properties of such maps and demonstrates their relevance by hands of examples. Finally, it is shown that the plasticity property of a sub-space $A$ contains at least two complementary questions, a purely geometric and a topological one. Both contribute essential aspects to the plasticity property and get more critical in higher dimensions and more abstract metric spaces.
It is known that if any function acting from precompact metric space to itself increases the distance between some pair of points then it must decrease distance between some other pair of points. We show that this is not the case for quasi-metric spaces. After that, we present some sufficient conditions under which the previous property holds true for hereditarily precompact quasi-metric spaces.
We address pairs $(X, Y)$ of metric spaces with the following property: for every mapping $f: X \to Y$ the existence of points $x, y \in X$ with $d(f(x),f(y)) > d(x,y)$ implies the existence of $\widetilde{x}, \widetilde{y}\in X$ for which $d(f(\widetilde{x}),f(\widetilde{y})) < d(\widetilde{x},\widetilde{y})$. We give sufficient conditions for this property and for its uniform version in terms of finite $\varepsilon$-nets and finite $\varepsilon$-separated subsets.
This work is aimed to describe linear expand-contract plastic ellipsoids given via quadratic form of a bounded positively defined self-adjoint operator in terms of its spectrum.
We prove that Banach spaces $\ell_1\oplus_2\mathbb{R}$ and $X\oplus_\infty Y$, with strictly convex $X$ and $Y$, have plastic unit balls (we call a metric space plastic if every non-expansive bijection from this space onto itself is an isometry).
We study geometric properties of GL-spaces. We demonstrate that every finite-dimensional GL-space is polyhedral; that in dimension 2 there are only two, up to isometry, GL-spaces, namely the space whose unit sphere is a square (like $\ell_\infty^2$ or $\ell_1^2$) and the space whose unit sphere is an equilateral hexagon. Finally, we address the question what are the spaces $E = (\R^n, \|\cdot\|_E)$ with absolute norm such that for every collection $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ of GL-spaces their $E$-sum is a GL-space.
The paper is aimed to establish the interdependence between linear expand-contract plasticity of an ellipsoid in a separable Hilbert spaces and properties of the set of its semi-axes.
We extend the result of B. Cascales at al. about expand-contract plasticity of the unit ball of strictly convex Banach space to those spaces whose unit ball is the union of all its finite-dimensional polyhedral extreme subsets. We also extend the definition of expand-contract plasticity to uniform spaces and generalize the theorem on expand-contract plasticity of totally bounded metric spaces to this new setting.
It is known that if $M$ is a finite-dimensional Banach space, or a strictly convex space, or the space $\ell_1$, then every non-expansive bijection $F: B_M \to B_M$ is an isometry. We extend these results to non-expansive bijections $F: B_E \to B_M$ between unit balls of two different Banach spaces. Namely, if $E$ is an arbitrary Banach space and $M$ is finite-dimensional or strictly convex, or the space $\ell_1$ then every non-expansive bijection $F: B_E \to B_M$ is an isometry.
Extending recent results by Cascales, Kadets, Orihuela and Wingler (2016), Kadets and Zavarzina (2017), and Zavarzina (2017) we demonstrate that for every Banach space $X$ and every collection $Z_i, i\in I$ of strictly convex Banach spaces every non-expansive bijection from the unit ball of $X$ to the unit ball of sum of $Z_i$ by $\ell_1$ is an isometry.
