Abstract We consider the problem of whether there is a sequence of homeomorphisms between the unit spheres of the ‐dimensional Banach spaces and which is also equi‐uniformly continuous. We prove that this cannot be the case if the sequence either (1) does not increase support sizes (which is a property strictly weaker than support preservation) or (2) is step preserving (which is a property strictly weaker than being equivariant with respect to permutations of the canonical basis). We also provide quantitative estimates relating the moduli of uniform continuity of the maps to the dimension of the spaces. This gives partial answers to a question of Johnson and it is related to the problem of whether has Kasparov and Yu's Property (H). Our results also apply to more general spaces other than such as spaces with unconditional bases which are not equivalent to the standard basis. Finally, we derive an asymptotic concentration inequality that must be satisfied by step preserving equi‐uniformly continuous maps defined on the positive parts of these unit spheres.
