Menger curvature and rectifiability in metric spaces

2008

We show that for any metric space $X$ the condition \[ \int_X\int_X\int_X c(z_1,z_2,z_3)^2\, d\Hm z_1\, d\Hm z_2\, d\Hm z_3 < \infty, \] where $c(z_1,z_2,z_3)$ is the Menger curvature of the triple $(z_1,z_2,z_3)$, guarantees that $X$ is rectifiable.
