RT Journal Article T1 Smooth approximation of Lipschitz functions on Riemannian manifolds A1 Azagra Rueda, Daniel A1 Ferrera Cuesta, Juan A1 López-Mesas Colomina, Fernando A1 Rangel, Y. AB We show that for every Lipschitz function f defined on a separable Riemannian manifold M (possibly of infinite dimension), for every continuous epsilon : M -> (0, + infinity), and for every positive number r > 0, there exists a C-infinity smooth Lipschitz function g : M -> R such that vertical bar f(p) - g(p)vertical bar <= epsilon(p) for every p is an element of M and Lip(g) <= Lip(f) + r. Consequently, every separable Riemannian manifold is uniformly bumpable. We also present some applications of this result, such as a general version for separable Riemannian manifolds of Deville-Godefroy-Zizler's smooth variational principle.
