Scaling conjecture for filling functions of Carnot groups
Scaling conjecture for filling functions of Carnot groups
Let be a Carnot group, and let denote the scaling by on . For a map , write for its volume and for the relevant -dimensional filling function.
Scaling conjecture. There is a map such that
The conjecture asserts that, in every Carnot group, some family of scaled cycles realizes the filling function at the scale prescribed by its volume. It is motivated by the preceding examples, where difficult fillings arise from scaling simple cycles rather than from topological or geometric complexity; the supplied text gives no resolution.
