Abstract
We study the high-dimensional limit of (projective) Stiefel and flag manifolds as metric measure spaces in Gromov’s topology. The limits are either the infinite-dimensional Gaussian space or its quotient by some mm-isomorphic group actions, which are drastically different from the manifolds. As a corollary, we obtain some asymptotic estimates of the observable diameter of (projective) Stiefel and flag manifolds.
