Embeddability of locally finite metric spaces into Banach spaces is finitely determined
arXiv:1103.0748
Abstract
The main purpose of the paper is to prove the following results: Let be a locally finite metric space whose finite subsets admit uniformly bilipschitz embeddings into a Banach space . Then admits a bilipschitz embedding into . Let be a locally finite metric space whose finite subsets admit uniformly coarse embeddings into a Banach space . Then admits a coarse embedding into . These results generalize previously known results of the same type due to Brown-Guentner (2005), Baudier (2007), Baudier-Lancien (2008), and the author (2006, 2009). One of the main steps in the proof is: each locally finite subset of an ultraproduct admits a bilipschitz embedding into . We explain how this result can be used to prove analogues of the main results for other classes of embeddings.
