Abstract:In this mostly expository article, we give streamlined proofs of several well-known Lipschitz extension theorems. We pay special attention to obtaining statements with explicit expressions for the Lipschitz extension constants. One of our main results is an explicit version of a very general Lipschitz extension theorem of Lang and Schlichenmaier. A special case of the theorem reads as follows. We prove that if X is a metric space and A ⊂ X satisfies the condition Nagata(n, c), then any 1-Lipschitz map f : A → … Show more
