Rademacher Type and Enflo Type Revisited

We establish a dimension-free vector-valued Poincaré-type inequality on the discrete cube for Banach spaces with Rademacher type $p$, $1\le p\le2$. As a consequence, we obtain $$ T_p^R(X)\le T_p^E(X)\le p\,T_p^R(X). $$ This gives an alternative proof that Rademacher type and Enflo type coincide, whi
