Tangent cones at infinity and the regularity of minimal submanifolds

In the famous paper by D. Fischer-Colbrie "Some rigidity theorems for minimal submanifolds of the sphere", the very first sentence reads: It is well known that the regularity of minimal ...

Are there Lojasiewicz-Simon estimates with boundary?

Let $M$ be an analytic manifold with boundary $\partial M$, equipped with a Riemannian metric $g$, which is also analytic up to and including the boundary. Are there Lojasiewicz–Simon estimates ...

Why are products of spheres integrable?

Let $n+1 \geq 3$ be an integer and $p + q = n$. Inside the unit sphere $\mathbf{S}^{n+1}$ the product \begin{equation} \mathbf{S}^p(\sqrt{p/n}) \times \mathbf{S}^q(\sqrt{q/n}) = \{ (X,Y) \in \mathbf{R}...

Singularities of phase interfaces in closed surfaces

Let $(\Sigma,g)$ be a compact surface without boundary. Given $\epsilon > 0$, the $\epsilon$-Allen-Cahn equation is the semilinear elliptic PDE $\epsilon \Delta_g u - \epsilon^{-1} W'(u) = 0$, with ...

Minimizing area in relative homology class

A well known result in geometric measure theory asserts that if $(M^{n+1}, g)$ is a closed Riemannian manifold and $\alpha \in H_n(M)$ is a nonzero homology class, then there exists a closed embedded ...
