Abstract
AbstractWe show that if a closed Lipschitz surface in $${\mathbb {R}}^n$$
R
n
has bounded Kolasinski–Menger energy, then it can be triangulated with triangles whose number is bounded by the energy and the area. Each of the triangles is an image of a subset of a plane under a diffeomorphism whose distortion is bounded by $$\sqrt{2}$$
