On realization of tangent cones of homologically area-minimizing compact singular submanifolds

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We show that every area-minimizing hypercone and every oriented Lawlor cone in [Law91] can be realized as a tangent cone at a point of some homologically area-minimizing singular compact submanifold. In particular this generalizes the result of N. Smale [Sma99].


The following question is studied: Can any area-minimizing cone be realized as a tangent cone at a point of some homologically area-minimizing compact singular submanifold? A positive answer to this question in the case of some oriented area-minimizing cones is established.
