dc.descriptionWe establish the existence, finiteness, and uniqueness up to scaling of various isoperimetric profiles of a group, in all dimensions. We also show that these profiles all coincide in dimensions 4 and higher; in particular, the nth Dehn function is equal to FV^{n+1} for n at least 3. Even for dimension 3, there is significant overlap. When a group has decidable word problem, this has mild consequences for the growth rates of its profiles. We also establish a metric analogue for highly connected Riemannian manifolds.
