Reason: First published version. Defines a Lipschitz map between metric spaces and its Lipschitz constant, a term used repeatedly in the mean-field chain but not previously defined in the corpus.

Statement

Let (X,dX)(X,d_X) and (Y,dY)(Y,d_Y) be metric spaces and let Λ\Lambda be a nonnegative real number.

A map f:XYf:X\to Y is Lipschitz with constant Λ\Lambda if

dY(f(x),f(x))ΛdX(x,x)for all x,xX,d_Y\big(f(x),f(x')\big)\le\Lambda\,d_X(x,x')\qquad\text{for all }x,x'\in X,

and Lipschitz if it is Lipschitz with constant Λ\Lambda for some nonnegative real number Λ\Lambda.

When XX is a nonempty subset of Euclidean space Rn\mathbb{R}^n and YY is a nonempty subset of Rk\mathbb{R}^k, the metrics are understood to be the restrictions of the Euclidean distances unless another choice is stated.
