Edrei's conjecture on weak local contractions
Edrei's conjecture on weak local contractions
Let be a compact metric space, and let be a weak local contraction, meaning that for every there exists an such that implies . A map is a local isometry if for every there exists an such that implies . Edrei's conjecture. Every weak local contraction on a compact metric space is a local isometry. Edrei's conjecture was disproved by Williams in 1954, who constructed four maps for which every point is a weak contraction point but some points are not isometry points.
