Recent advances in the theory of metric measures spaces on the one hand, and of sub-Riemannian ones on the other hand, suggest the possibility of a "great unification" of Riemannian and sub-Riemannian geometries in a comprehensive framework of synthetic Ricci curvature lower bounds, as put forth in Villani (2019). With the aim of achieving such a unification program, in this paper we initiate the study of gauge metric measure spaces.

Abstract
Recent advances in the theory of metric measures spaces on the one hand, and of sub-Riemannian ones on the other hand, suggest the possibility of a "great unification" of Riemannian and sub-Riemannian geometries in a comprehensive framework of synthetic Ricci curvature lower bounds, as put forth in Villani (2019). With the aim of achieving such a unification program, in this paper we initiate the study of gauge metric measure spaces.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
