Abstract
Abstract We study properties of twisted unions of metric spaces introduced in [Johnson, Lindenstrauss, and Schechtman 1986], and in [Naor and Rabani 2017]. In particular, we prove that under certain natural mild assumptions twisted unions of L1-embeddable metric spaces also embed in L1 with distortions bounded above by constants that do not depend on the metric spaces themselves, or on their size, but only on certain general parameters. This answers a question stated in [Naor 2015] and in [Naor and Rabani 2017]. In the second part of the paper we give new simple examples of metric spaces such that their every embedding into Lp, 1 ≤ p < ∞, has distortion at least 3, but which are a union of two subsets, each isometrically embeddable in Lp. This extends the result of [K. Makarychev and Y. Makarychev 2016] from Hilbert spaces to Lp-spaces, 1 ≤ p < ∞.
期刊介绍:
Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces is an open access electronic journal that publishes cutting-edge research on analytical and geometrical problems in metric spaces and applications. We strive to present a forum where all aspects of these problems can be discussed.
AGMS is devoted to the publication of results on these and related topics:
Geometric inequalities in metric spaces,
Geometric measure theory and variational problems in metric spaces,
Analytic and geometric problems in metric measure spaces, probability spaces, and manifolds with density,
Analytic and geometric problems in sub-riemannian manifolds, Carnot groups, and pseudo-hermitian manifolds.
Geometric control theory,
Curvature in metric and length spaces,
Geometric group theory,
Harmonic Analysis. Potential theory,
Mass transportation problems,
Quasiconformal and quasiregular mappings. Quasiconformal geometry,
PDEs associated to analytic and geometric problems in metric spaces.
