Stable minimal hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{N+1+\ell}$ with singular set an arbitrary closed $K$ in $\{0\}\times\mathbb{R}^{\ell}$

With respect to a $C^{\infty}$ metric which is close to the standard Euclidean metric on $\mathbb{R}^{N+1+\ell}$, where $N\ge 7$ and $\ell\ge 1$ are given, we construct a class of embedded $(N+\ell)$-dimensional hypersurfaces (without boundary) which are minimal and strictly stable, and which have singular set equal to an arbitrary preassigned closed subset $K\subset\{0\}\times\mathbb{R}^{\ell}$.
