Jul 13, 2021 at 17:31 comment added Alex M. @WholeFood, there is a rule here that we don't (significantly) change the question after an answer has been posted. The reason is that someone has worked hard to compose that answer, and a change in the question might render that work useless, which would not be polite. Another reason is that a future reader who hasn't noticed that the question was changed might not understand how the answer addresses it.

Jul 13, 2021 at 16:35 comment added Leo Moos I would suggest that you ask a new question instead of deleting the old one. If you do this, you could also clarify your question and add more detail. For example, why does the postscript in the answer below not address your new question?

May 24, 2021 at 12:04 comment added Leo Moos In my opinion you have it slightly backwards. Varifolds - as other low-regularity objects in analysis - are usually considered to compensate for a lack of compactness in the smooth category. That's where prerequisites tend to come form: for example parabolic PDE for Brakke flow, differential geometry for stationary varifolds etc. As far as the varifold aspect is concerned, I think there are few formal prerequisites - some measure theory and functional analysis, perhaps.
