Quantified compactness in Lipschitz-free spaces of $[-1,1]^n$

Abstract: We show that the members of the Lipschitz-free space of $[-1,1]^n$ are exactly the 0-dimensional flat currents whose "boundary" vanishes. The connection with normal and flat currents allows to use the Federer-Fleming compactness and deformation theorems in this context. We characterize the compact subsets of this Lipschitz-free space and we quantify their $\epsilon$-entropy.
