Stability of Lipschitz-type functions under pointwise product and reciprocation

This article provides necessary and sufficient conditions on the structure of a metric space such that for various vector lattices of real-valued Lipschitz-type functions defined on the metric space, the vector lattice is stable under pointwise product, and such that the reciprocal of each non-vanis...

Sumario:This article provides necessary and sufficient conditions on the structure of a metric space such that for various vector lattices of real-valued Lipschitz-type functions defined on the metric space, the vector lattice is stable under pointwise product, and such that the reciprocal of each non-vanishing member of the vector lattice remains in the vector lattice. In each case the family of metric spaces for which the first property holds contains the family of metric spaces for which the second property holds. At the end we prove some extension theorems for classes of locally Lipschitz functions that complement known results for Cauchy continuous functions and for uniformly continuous functions.
