Abstract:

C. Bessaga introduced an invariant $\eta (X)$ for $\sigma$-compact normed linear spaces. He showed that $\eta (X) = \eta (Y)$ whenever $X$ and $Y$ are Lipschitz homeomorphic. In this note we construct two $\sigma$-compact normed spaces with $\eta (X) = \eta (Y)$ which are not Lipschitz homeomorphic. Moreover, there are no compact convex sets $K$ and $L$ generating $X$ and $Y$, respectively, which are Lipschitz homeomorphic. This answers two problems posed by Bessaga.
