    The main purpose of the paper under review is to obtain sharp principal curvature estimates for the level set of lower-dimensional \(p\)-harmonic functions and minimal graphs defined on convex rings. The main technique in the proof of the main result consists in rearranging the second- and third-derivative terms using the equation and the first derivative conditions for \(\varphi\). A major argument is also the strong maximum principle.
