Defines a locally Lipschitz map on an open subset of Rn\mathbb{R}^n: every point has a closed ball neighbourhood inside the domain on which the map is Lipschitz.

Statement

We work in the setting of Euclidean Space and Lebesgue Measure: Standing Notation, whose notation is fixed for every dimension and is used here with natural numbers n,mn,m satisfying 1n1\le n and 1m1\le m: the Euclidean norm \lVert\,\cdot\,\rVert, distance dEd_{E}, notion of openness, and closed balls Bˉ(x,r)\bar{B}(x,r) are those fixed there, as is the convention that Lipschitz maps between subsets of Euclidean spaces are understood for the restricted Euclidean distances.

Let URnU\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n} be open and let T:URmT:U\to\mathbb{R}^{m} be a map.

Definition. The map TT is locally Lipschitz on UU if for every xUx\in U there are r,LRr,L\in\mathbb{R} with 0<r0<r and 0L0\le L such that Bˉ(x,r)U\bar{B}(x,r)\subseteq U and the restriction of TT to Bˉ(x,r)\bar{B}(x,r) is Lipschitz with constant LL as a map from the metric space (Bˉ(x,r),dE)(\bar{B}(x,r),d_{E}) to (Rm,dE)(\mathbb{R}^{m},d_{E}); that is,

T(y)T(z)Lyzfor all y,zBˉ(x,r).\lVert T(y)-T(z)\rVert\le L\,\lVert y-z\rVert\qquad\text{for all }y,z\in\bar{B}(x,r).

The number LL is called a local Lipschitz constant for TT on Bˉ(x,r)\bar{B}(x,r).
