The transfer of property $(\beta)$ of Rolewicz by a uniform quotient map
  We provide a Laakso construction to prove that the property of having an equivalent norm with the property $(\beta)$ of Rolewicz is qualitatively preserved via surjective uniform quotient mappings between separable Banach spaces. On the other hand, we show that the $(\beta)$-modulus is not quantitatively preserved via such a map by exhibiting two uniformly homeomorphic Banach spaces that do not have $(\beta)$-moduli of the same power-type even under renorming.
