Abstract

We adapt the method of Simon [JDG '93] to prove a C1,αC^{1,\alpha}-regularity theorem for minimal varifolds which resemble a cone C02\bf{C}_0^2 over an equiangular geodesic net. For varifold classes admitting a "no-hole" condition on the singular set, we additionally establish C1,αC^{1,\alpha}-regularity near the cone C02×Rm\bf{C}_0^2 \times \mathbb R^m. Combined with work of Allard [Ann. of Math. '72], Simon [JDG '93], Taylor [Ann. of Math. '76], and Naber-Valtorta [Ann. of Math. '17], our result implies a C1,αC^{1,\alpha}-structure for the top three strata of minimizing clusters and size-minimizing currents, and a Lipschitz structure on the (n3)(n-3)-stratum.
