Structure of the Lipschitz free p-spaces Fp(Zd) and Fp(Rd) for 0 < p ≤ 1

Abstract

Our aim in this article is to contribute to the theory of Lipschitz free p-spaces for 0 < p ≤ 1 over the Euclidean spaces Rd and Zd. To that end, on one hand we show that Fp(Rd) admits a Schauder basis for every p ∈ 2 (0, 1], thus generalizing the corresponding result for the case p = 1 by H_ajek and Perneck_a [20, Theorem 3.1] and answering in the positive a question that was raised in [3]. Explicit formulas for the bases of both Fp(Rd) and its isomorphic space Fp([0, 1]d) are given. On the other hand we show that the well-known fact that F(Z) is isomorphic to l1 does not extend to the case when p < 1, that is, Fp(Z) is not isomorphic to lp when 0 < p < 1.
