Local uniformization and free boundary regularity of minimal singular surfaces (Q555702)

The minimal singular hypersurfaces obtained by a minimization of a weighted energy functional are studied. The a priori regularity result concerning the real analyticity of the free boundary curve is obtained. The local harmonic isothermal coordinates for the minimal singular surface in a neighborhood of a point on the free boundary are constructed. The following theorem is also proved: Theorem 9. A minimal surface in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) with a real analytic boundary can be extended across the boundary by a multi-sheeted reflection.
