Abstract

Let (X, d) be a quasi-metric space and (Y, q) be a quasi-normed linear space. We show that the normed cone of semi-Lipschitz functions from (X, d) to (Y, q) that vanish at a point x 0X, is balanced. Moreover, it is complete in the sense of D. Doitchinov whenever (Y, q) is a biBanach space.
