Noncompactness and noncompleteness in isometries of Lipschitz spaces

We solve the following three questions concerning surjective linear isometries between spaces of Lipschitz functions Lip(X,E) and Lip(Y,F), for strictly convex normed spaces E and F and metric spaces X and Y:(i)Characterize those base spaces X and Y for which all isometries are weighted composition maps.(ii)Give a condition independent of base spaces under which all isometries are weighted composition maps.(iii)Provide the general form of an isometry, both when it is a weighted composition map and when it is not. In particular, we prove that requirements of completeness on X and Y are not necessary when E and F are not complete, which is in sharp contrast with results known in the scalar context.
