Abstract: By employing Aronsson's Absolute Minimizers of Linfty functionals, we prove that Absolutely Minimizing Maps u:RnlarrowRN solve a "tangential" Aronsson PDE system. By following Sheffield-Smart cite{SS}, we derive Deinfty with respect to the dual operator norm and show that such maps miss information along a hyperplane when compared to Tight Maps. We recover the lost term which causes non-uniqueness and derive the complete Aronsson system which has emph{discontinuous coefficients}. In particular, the Euclidean infty-Laplacian is where is the projection on the null space of Duop. We exibit Cinfty solutions having interfaces along which the rank of their gradient is discontinuous and propose a modification with C0 coefficients which admits emph{varifold solutions}. Away from the interfaces, Aronsson Maps satisfy a structural property of local splitting to 2 phases, an horizontal and a vertical; horizontally they possess gradient flows similar to the scalar case and vertically solve a linear system coupled by a scalar Hamilton Jacobi PDE. We also construct singular infty-Harmonic local C1 diffeomorphisms and singular Aronsson Maps.
