Abstract

Let XX be a Banach space or more generally a complete metric space admitting a conical geodesic bicombing. We prove that every closed LL-Lipschitz curve γ:S1X\gamma:S^1\rightarrow X may be extended to an LL-Lipschitz map defined on the hemisphere f:H2Xf:H^2\rightarrow X. This implies that XX satisfies a quadratic isoperimetric inequality (for curves) with constant 12π\frac{1}{2\pi}. We discuss how this fact controls the regularity of minimal discs in Finsler manifolds when applied to the work of Alexander Lytchak and Stefan Wenger.
