Free and fragmenting filling length

The filling length of an edge-circuit \eta in the Cayley 2-complex of a finite presentation of a group is the least integer L such that there is a combinatorial null-homotopy of \eta down to a base point through loops of length at most L. We introduce similar notions in which the null-homotopy is no...
