A Characterization of Maps of Bounded Compression
Lorenzo Dello Schiavo
Abstract
A measurable map between measure spaces is shown to have bounded compression if and only if its image via the measure-algebra functor is Lipschitz-continuous w.r.t. the measure-algebra distances. This provides a natural interpretation of maps of bounded compression/deformation by means of the measure-algebra functor and corroborates the assertion that maps of bounded deformation are the natural class of morphisms for the category of complete and separable metric measure spaces.
