Abstract

Let ΩRn(n2) \Omega \subsetneq \mathbf{R}^n\,(n\geq 2) be an unbounded convex domain. We study the minimal surface equation in Ω\Omega with boundary value given by the sum of a linear function and a bounded uniformly continuous function in Rn \mathbf{R}^n. If Ω \Omega is not a half space, we prove that the solution is unique. If Ω \Omega is a half space, we prove that graphs of all solutions form a foliation of Ω×R\Omega\times\mathbf{R}. This can be viewed as a stability type theorem for Edelen-Wang's Bernstein type theorem in \cite{EW2021}. We also establish a comparison principle for the minimal surface equation in Ω\Omega.
