A PDE perspective on the flat chain conjecture

Analysis of PDEs 2025-11-11 v1

Abstract

This survey summarizes recent progress on the flat chain conjecture, which asserts the equivalence between metric currents and flat chains with finite mass in the Euclidean space. In particular, we focus on recent work showing that the conjecture is equivalent to a Lipschitz regularity estimate for a certain PDE.
