Abstract:
There are several characterizations of coarse embeddability of locally finite metric spaces into a Hilbert space. In this note we give such characterizations for general metric spaces. By applying these results to the spaces $L_p(mu)$, we get their coarse embeddability into a Hilbert space for $0<p<2$. This together with a theorem by Banach and Mazur yields that coarse embeddability into $ell_2$ and into $L_p(0,1)$ are equivalent when $1 le p<2$. A theorem by G.Yu and the above allow us to extend to $L_p(mu)$, $0<ple 2$, the range of spaces, coarse embeddings into which is guaranteed for a finitely generated group $Gamma$ to satisfy the Novikov Conjecture.

Keywords:Coarse embeddings   metric spaces   Novikov Conjecture
