The Banach space of bounded continuous real or complexvalued functions on a topological space X is denoted C(X). An averaging operator for an onto continuous function ϕ : XY is a bounded linear projection of C(X) onto the subspace ﹛ƒ ∈ C(X) : f is constant on each set ϕ -1(y) for yY﹜. The projection constant p(ϕ) for an onto continuous map ϕ is the lower bound for the norms of all averaging operators for ϕ ﹛p(ϕ) = ∞ if there is no averaging operator for ϕ).
