Abstract (Inglese)
Abstract (Italiano)
The characterization problem of higher order rectifiable sets and a modelling problem for soap films are studied. In particular, necessary and sufficient geometric and quantitative conditions for a set to be rectifiable (in a higher order sense) are proved in Euclidean and metric spaces. Furthermore, a soap film model in the Euclidean plane is presented as a way to solving the Plateau problem in the plane.
