Lipschitz magnitude conjecture for tractable subspaces
Lipschitz magnitude conjecture for tractable subspaces
Let be the space of integrable real-valued functions with its usual metric, and let be a tractable subspace. Write and for the spaces of finite and compact subspaces of , respectively, and let and denote their magnitude maps. A map is Lipschitz if there is a constant such that its output differences are at most times the distances between inputs.
Lipschitz magnitude conjecture. Let be tractable. Then
is Lipschitz if and only if is bounded. Equivalently, the magnitude map on is Lipschitz if and only if is bounded; for tractable , boundedness is equivalent to compactness.
This conjecture characterizes exactly when magnitude has global Lipschitz continuity on compact or finite subspaces of a tractable subspace of .
