We establish a theory of $Q$-valued functions minimizing a suitable generalization of the Dirichlet integral. In a second paper the theory will be used to approximate efficiently area minimizing currents $\mathrm{mod}(p)$ when $p=2Q$, and…

We give an alternative proof of the Schoen--Simon--Yau curvature estimates and associated Bernstein-type theorems (1975), and extend the original result by including the case of $6$-dimensional (stable minimal) immersions. The key step is…

Combining information both within and between sample realizations, we propose a simple estimator for the local regularity of surfaces in the functional data framework. The independently generated surfaces are measured with errors at…

We give a short proof, in the tradition of the classical work of de Giorgi and Miranda on flat space, that the reduced boundary of a set of least perimeter in a Riemannian manifold of dimension $\leq 7$ is a smooth minimal hypersurfaces.

We obtain a generic regularity result for stationary integral $n$-varifolds with only strongly isolated singularities inside $N$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds, in absence of any restriction on the dimension ($n\geq 2$) and codimension.…

Regularity theorems \`a la Avellaneda-Lin are an indispensable part of the modern quantitative theory of stochastic homogenization. While interior regularity results for random elliptic operators have been available for a while, on general…

It was proved by Almgren that among boundaries whose mean curvature is bounded from above, perimeter is uniquely minimized by balls. We obtain sharp stability estimates for Almgren's isoperimetric principle and, as an application, we deduce…

We prove that Riemannian metrics with a uniform weak norm can be smoothed to having arbitrarily high regularity. This generalizes all previous smoothing results. As a consequence we obtain a generalization of Gromov's almost flat manifold…

In 1960s, Almgren initiated a program to find minimal hypersurfaces in compact manifolds using min-max method. This program was largely advanced by Pitts and Schoen-Simon in 1980s when the manifold has no boundary. In this paper, we finish…

We consider integral area-minimizing $2$-dimensional currents $T$ in $U\subset \mathbb R^{2+n}$ with $\partial T = Q[\![\Gamma]\!]$, where $Q\in \mathbb N \setminus \{0\}$ and $\Gamma$ is sufficiently smooth. We prove that, if $q\in \Gamma$…

In [15], Jean Taylor has proved a regularity theorem away from boundary for Almgren almost minimal sets of dimension two in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. It is quite important for understanding the soap films and the solutions of Plateau's problem away…
