Minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ can be locally approximated by graphs of harmonic functions, i.e., functions that are critical points of the Dirichlet energy, but no analogous theorem is known for $H$-minimal surfaces in the…

We study the asymptotic Dirichlet problem for $f$-minimal graphs in Cartan-Hadamard manifolds $M$. $f$-minimal hypersurfaces are natural generalizations of self-shrinkers which play a crucial role in the study of mean curvature flow. In the…
