Covering number estimates for Hölder balls

Let $\alpha \in (0,1]$, $r>0$ and $L>0$, and positive intwgers $n$ and $m$. The Arzela-Ascoli Theorem guarantees that the set $X(\alpha,L,r)$ of $f:[-1,1]^n\rightarrow [-r,r]^m$ with $\alpha$-...

Is $\ell_p$ $(1<p<\infty)$ finitely isometrically distortable?

Let $Y$ be a Banach space isomorphic to $\ell_p$, $1<p<\infty$. Is it true that any finite subset of $\ell_p$ is isometric to some finite subset of $Y$? It seems to me that it is an interesting ...

Factorization of metric space-valued maps through vector-valued Sobolev spaces

Let $(X,d,m)$ and $(Y,\rho,n)$ be metric measure spaces and let $f:X\rightarrow Y$ be a Borel-measurable function for which there is some $y_0$ and some $p\geq 0$ such that $$ \int_{x\in X}\,d(y_0,f(x)...

Vague convergence: confusion about the regularity of a signed Radon measure and that of its variation

I'm reading a proof of below theorem from this paper. Theorem A.3. Let $\Omega$ be a locally compact normal Hausdorff space. Let $\left\{\mu_n\right\} \cup\{\mu\} \subset \mathcal{M}(\Omega)$ and ...

Show identity for a norm on Fréchet differentiable functions on a Banach space

Let $E$ be a $\mathbb R$-Banach space, $v:E\to(0,\infty)$ be continuous with $$\inf_{x\in E}v(x)>0\tag1,$$ $r\in(0,1]$ and$^1$ $$\rho(x,y):=\inf_{\substack{c\:\in\:C^1([0,\:1],\:E)\\ c(0)=x\\ c(1)=...

Complex Borel measures: does $\mu_n \to \mu$ weakly imply $|\mu|(\Theta) \le \liminf_n |\mu_n|(\Theta)$ for every open subset $\Theta$?

Let $\Omega$ be a metric space, $C_b(\Omega)$ the space of all real-valued bounded continuous functions on $\Omega$, and $\mathcal{M}(\Omega)$ the space of all finite signed Borel measures on $\Omega$...

Open set of geodesics implies the set of starting points is open

Let $X$ be a complete and separable metric space, let $G(X) \subset C([0,1],X)$ be the space of continuous curves from $[0,1]$ to $X$ with constant speed, i.e. $$ d(f(t),f(s)) = |t-s| d(f(0), f(1)). $$...

Does there exist a class of real-valued upper semicontinuos functions on $X$ such that $\mathcal{F}$ is countable?

Ian Morris quoted the following: For any upper semi-continuous function $f \colon X \to [-\infty,+\infty)$ defined on a nonempty topological space $X$ there exists a nonempty set $\mathcal{F}\...

Complex Borel measures: relation between the total variation norm of a measure and those of its real and imaginary parts

Let $X$ be a metric space and $\mathcal B$ its Borel $\sigma$-algebra. For $B \in \mathcal B$ we denote by $\Pi(B)$ the collection of all finite measurable partitions of $B$, i.e., $$ \Pi(B)=\left\{\...
