Abstract:

We prove optimal regularity and a detailed analysis of the free boundary of the solutions to the thin obstacle problem for nonparametric minimal surfaces with flat obstacles.

Keywords: Non parametric minimal surfaces, thin obstacle problem, 2-valued functions, optimal regularity, free boundary regularity
