Is every 1-Lipschitz homeomorphism $f:X\to X$ from a compact metric space to itself an isometry?
I found a statement involving a homeomorphism $f:X\to X$ of a compact metric space $X$, with Lipshitz coefficient 1, i.e., a non-expansive map, and cannot think of an example where $f$ is not an ...

A Lipschitzian's condition for the measure of nonconvexity
I'm actually working on the measure of nonconvexity and its application. Especially, the Eisenfeld–Lakshmikantham MNC defined - in a Banach space - by:
$$\alpha(A)=\sup_{b\in\overline{\operatorname{...

Bounded ball measure on compact metric space
Fix $c>1$. Let $(X,d)$ be a separable compact metric space, does there necessarily exist a Borel probability measure $\nu$ on $(X,d)$ such that
$\operatorname{sup}_{x \in X,r>0}\frac{\nu(\...

How to show the cardinality of nonisometric compact metric spaces is the continuum
It is asserted in A Course in Metric Geometry by Burago, Burago, Ivanov that
there can be no more than continuum of mutually nonisometric compact spaces
How is this proven?
Its clear that there ...
