Can one squash the space into the plane without squashing?
A map \(f\) between two metric spaces is called here a Lipschitz quotient if there are positive constants \(c\) and \(k\) such that the inclusions \( B(f(x),cr)\subseteq f(B(x,r))\subseteq B(f(x),kr) \) always hold. Such a map must be open but may not be surjective. For \(2\leq k<n\), an imaginative Lipschitz quotient map from \({\mathbb R}^n\) onto \({\mathbb R}^k\) is constructed, which sends an \((n-k+1)\)-dimensional subspace to a single point. This shows that Gorelik's principle, which concerns bi-uniform homeomorphisms between Banach spaces, does not have any easy extension to quotient maps, i.e., the injectivity hypothesis is important.
