Generalized Pansu conjecture for sub-Finsler Heisenberg groups

Let (H(R),dQ,λ)(H(\mathbb R),d_Q,\lambda) be the Heisenberg group equipped with Haar measure λ\lambda and an arbitrary Carnot–Carathéodory metric dQd_Q arising from a norm on the horizontal plane. Surface area is taken to be either Minkowski content or anti-Minkowski content associated with the dual metric. Generalized Pansu conjecture. For any such dQd_Q and either notion of surface area, the Pansu bubble set is the unique isoperimetrix, up to dilation and translation. The conjecture extends Pansu's proposed characterization from the sub-Riemannian setting to arbitrary sub-Finsler Carnot–Carathéodory metrics. The source presents computations suggesting the Pansu bubble set is superior to several generalized bubble sets, but does not establish the conjecture.
