Gromov's quadratic Dehn function conjecture for higher-rank arithmetic groups

From papers

Let G\mathbf{G} be the algebraic group over the global field KK and let SS be the specified finite set of places, with ring of SS-integers OS\mathcal{O}_S. Write

k(G,S)=vSrankKv(G)k(\mathbf{G},S)=\sum_{v\in S}\operatorname{rank}_{K_v}(\mathbf{G})

for the geometric rank, and let the Dehn function measure the minimum filling area of null-homotopic words in G(OS)\mathbf{G}(\mathcal{O}_S). Gromov's conjecture. If k(G,S)3k(\mathbf{G},S)\geq 3, then the Dehn function of G(OS)\mathbf{G}(\mathcal{O}_S) is quadratic. This conjecture extends a conjecture of Gromov and concerns the isoperimetric behavior of higher-rank arithmetic groups. The source presents it as a conjecture; no resolution is supplied here.
