The Lipschitz-Volume Rigidity Problem for Metric Manifolds
1Department of Mathematics, University of Fribourg, Chemin du Musée 23, 1700 Fribourg, Switzerland.
Abstract:
We prove a Lipschitz-volume rigidity result for 1-Lipschitz maps of non-zero degree between metric manifolds (metric spaces homeomorphic to a closed oriented manifold) and Riemannian manifolds. The proof is based on degree theory and recent developments of Lipschitz-volume rigidity for integral currents.
