    On Relations Between Transportation Cost Spaces and l1<
    (Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2020) Ostrovska, Sofiya; Ostrovskii, Mikhail I.
    The present paper deals with some structural properties of transportation cost spaces, also known as Arens-Eells spaces, Lipschitz-free spaces and Wasserstein spaces. The main results of this work are: (1) A necessary and sufficient condition on an infinite metric space M, under which the transportation cost space on M contains an isometric copy of l(1). The obtained condition is applied to answer the open questions asked by Cuth and Johanis (2017) concerning several specific metric spaces. (2) The description of the transportation cost space of a weighted finite graph G as the quotient l(1) (E(G))/Z(G), where E(G) is the edge set and Z(G) is the cycle space of G. (C) 2020 Elsevier Inc.

    Complementability of Isometric Copies of L1 in Transportation Cost Spaces
    (Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2024) Ostrovska, Sofiya; Ostrovskii, Mikhail I.
    This work aims to establish new results pertaining to the structure of transportation cost spaces. Due to the fact that those spaces were studied and applied in various contexts, they have also become known under different names such as Arens-Eells spaces, Lipschitz-free spaces, and Wasserstein spaces. The main outcome of this paper states that if a metric space X is such that the transportation cost space on X contains an isometric copy of L1, then it contains a 1-complemented isometric copy of $1.

    On Embeddings of Locally Finite Metric Spaces Into lp<
    (Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2019) Ostrovska, Sofiya; Ostrovskii, Mikhail I.
    It is known that if finite subsets of a locally finite metric space M admit C-bilipschitz embeddings into l(p) (1 <= p <= infinity), then for every epsilon > 0, the space M admits a (C + epsilon)-bilipschitz embedding into l(p). The goal of this paper is to show that for p not equal 2, infinity this result is sharp in the sense that e cannot be dropped out of its statement. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
