Abstract:
Given a metric manifold Y, its minimal filling volume is defined as the infimum of volumes of manifolds whose boundary is Y. In general, the infimum need not be attained by a manifold but rather by an integral current space. In this talk I describe how convex bodies are the unique minimal fillings of their boundaries and how this relates to volume a property called "Lipschitz-volume rigidity".
