Compact anisotropic stable hypersurfaces with free boundary in convex solid cones (Q6169092)

This paper is devoted to studying a variational problem for Euclidean hypersurfaces which are associated to an anisotropic energy functional. The main result establishes that any compact, connected, two-sided, anisotropic stable hypersurface which is immersed in a convex solid cone \(C\) with free boundary in \(\partial C\backslash\{0\}\) is part of the Wulff shape (up to a translation and a dilation centered at the vertex). Other related nice results are also shown; for instance it is proved that a compact anisotropic stable hypersurface in a cone \(C\) over a smooth strictly convex body \(K\) of the sphere is a dilation of \(\partial K\cap\overline{C}\).
