Lipschitz-free spaces are strongly unique preduals

We prove that the Lipschitz-free space $\mathcal{F}(M)$ is the strongly unique isometric predual of $\mathrm{Lip}_0(M)$ for every metric space $M$, solving a longstanding open problem of Weaver. The result is proved first for length metric spaces by analyzing the behavior of Lipschitz functions on paths in $M$ and the...
