Abstract: Let X be a closed semialgebraic set of dimension k. If nge2k+1, then there is a bi-Lipschitz and semialgebraic embedding of X into BbbRn. Moreover, if nge2k+2, then this embedding is unique (up to a bi-Lipschitz and semialgebraic homeomorphism of BbbRn.


The paper under review contributes to questions on Lipschitz equivalence of semialgebraic sets. There are different notions of Lipschitz equivalence. Two sets are called Lipschitz inner equivalent if there is a bi-Lipschitz map between the two sets with respect to the inner metric. They are called Lipschitz outer equivalent if there exists a bi-Lipschitz map with respect to the outer metric. And they are called ambient Lipschitz equivalent if there exists a bi-Lipschitz map with respect to the outer metric that can be extended as a bi-Lipschitz map to the ambient space. Here the relation between the outer equivalence relation and the ambient one is investigated. The main results are the following: Let \(X\) be a closed semialgebraic set of dimension \(k\). If \(n\geq 2k+1\) then there is a bi-Lipschitz and semialgebraic embedding of \(X\) into \(\mathbb{R}^n\). If \(n\geq 2k+2\) then this embedding is unique (up to a bi-Lipschitz and semialgebraic homeomorphism of \(\mathbb{R}^n\)). Also local and complex algebraic versions of these results are given.
