Abstract:
Let Y be a compact Riemannian manifold. Let X be locally compact and paracompact. It is shown that every uniform homotopy and every homotopy of bounded width from X to Y may be approximated by a Lipschitz homotopy. Applications to the study of uniform homotopy and homotopies of bounded width are given.
