Uniform embeddings of bounded geometry spaces into reflexive Banach space

This paper appeared in the Proceedings of the Amer. Math. Society., 133 (2005), 2045-2050.


Abstract (from the preprint)

We show that every metric space with bounded geometry uniformly embeds into a direct sum of l-p spaces (p's going off to infinity). In particular, every sequence of expanding graphs uniformly embeds into such a reflexive Banach space even though no such sequence uniformly embeds into a fixed l-p space. In the case of discrete groups we prove the analogue of a-T-menability -- the existence of a metrically proper affine isometric action on a direct sum of l-p spaces.
