Tangent cones at zero and infinity to minimal surfaces

Let $n \geq 2$, and let $M^n \subset \mathbf{R}^{n+1}$ be a minimal surface with $0 \in M$ and finite ($n$-dimensional) area growth: $\operatorname{limsup}_{R \to \infty} R^{-n} \lVert M \cap B_R \...

When is the least-area surface unique?

Let $M^{n-1}$ be a smooth closed manifold, embedded into the round sphere $\mathbf{S}^n$ via a regular map $\Phi$. Using tools from geometric measure theory, one can prove the existence of a $n$-...

Defining minimality 'through deformations'

Let $U \subset \mathbf{R}^{n+k}$ be a bounded open set, and $T \in \mathbf{I}_n(U)$ be an $n$-dimensional integral rectifiable current. Say that $T$ is stationary through (homological) deformations if ...
