Quantitative versions of Pansu Asymptotic Theorem and of Mitchell Tangent Theorem

Abstract

We quantitatively study the speed of convergence of geodesic Lie groups to their metric limits. For nilpotent geodesic Lie groups, we give estimates on the difference of the original metrics and the asymptotic metrics, while for general geodesic Lie groups, we give similar estimates for the difference of the original metrics and the tangent metrics. In both settings, our results sharpen existing bounds in the literature.
