 Entropy of Lipschitz compositions

Suppose outer functions in a family $B$ obey $|f(x)-f(y)|\le L{\max }_j|x_j-y_j|$, and compose them with $m$ inner functions drawn from $E$. Approximate the outer function within $\epsilon /2$ and each inner function within $\epsilon /(2L)$. The triangle inequality bounds the composed error by $\epsilon$. Multiplying the numbers of possible net choices and taking logarithms gives the stated inequality. A uniform bound on first partial derivatives supplies $L=m$ for the $C^p$ unit ball, so the exponent of a common entropy bound for the outer and inner classes is retained under function composition.
