Metric-minimizing surfaces revisited

Abstract: A surface that does not admit a length nonincreasing deformation is called metric minimizing. We show that metric minimizing surfaces in CAT(0) spaces are locally CAT(0) with respect to their length metrics.

“…This naturally arises by examining the geometry of 2-dimensional Artin groups. It is interesting to compare this with the work of Petrunin and Stadler [PS17], where (roughly speaking) they showed any minimal disc in a CAT (0) space is CAT (0). Thus it is natural to wonder whether one can set up this weaker notion in a more analytical way and apply it to natural classes of examples.…”
