Isoperimetric inequalities of euclidean type in metric spaces

Functional Analysis 2007-05-23 v1 Metric Geometry

Abstract

In this paper we prove an isoperimetric inequality of euclidean type for complete metric spaces admitting a cone-type inequality. These include all Banach spaces and all complete, simply-connected metric spaces of non-positive curvature in the sense of Alexandrov or, more generally, of Busemann. The main theorem generalizes results of Gromov and Ambrosio-Kirchheim.
