Abstract: The maximal graph Dirichlet problem asks whether there exists a spacelike graph, in a semi-Euclidean space, with a given boundary and with mean curvature everywhere zero. We prove the existence of solutions to this problem under certain assumptions on the given boundary. Most importantly, the results proved here will hold for graphs of codimension greater than 1.
