Conjecture on homological filling area and the Dehn function

At least 5 years old · documented by

Let HH be a finitely presented group. Denote by FA⁡H\operatorname{FA}_H its homological filling-area function and by δH\delta_H its Dehn function, and write f⪯gf\preceq g for the usual domination relation between filling functions. Homological filling-area conjecture. One has

FA⁡H⪯δH.\operatorname{FA}_H\preceq\delta_H.

The preceding result proves only the weaker bound using the superadditive closure of δH\delta_H. Thus this sharper comparison is presented as a suspicion in the source and remains open.
