We show that if $M^n$ is a properly immersed, two-sided, stable minimal hypersurface in $B^{n+1}_1(0)\setminus S$, where $S$ is closed with $\mathcal{H}^{n-2}(S)=0$, then $\text{dim}_{\mathcal{H}}\text{sing}(M)\leq n-7$, namely…

We consider minimising $p$-harmonic maps from three-dimensional domains to the real projective plane, for $1<p<2$. These maps arise as least-energy configurations in variational models for nematic liquid crystals. We show that the singular…
