A half-space Bernstein theorem for anisotropic minimal graphs (English)
[ Abstract ]
Anisotropic functionals are the natural generalization of the area functional. From a technical perspective, what distinguishes general anisotropic functionals from the area case is the absence of a monotonicity formula. In this talk, we will present a proof of a half-space Bernstein theorem for anisotropic minimal graphs with flat boundary condition. The proof uses only the maximal principle and ideas from fully nonlinear PDE theory in lieu of a monotonicity formula. This is joint work with W. Du, C. Moony, and J. Zhu.
