摘要

For any \(\Lambda >0\) Λ > 0 , let \(\mathcal {M}_{n,\Lambda }\) M n , Λ denote the space containing all locally Lipschitz minimal graphs of dimension n and of arbitrary codimension m in Euclidean space \(\mathbb {R}^{n+m}\) R n + m with uniformly bounded 2-dilation \(\Lambda \) Λ of their graphic functions. In this paper, we show that this is a natural class to extend structural results known for codimension one. In particular, we prove that any tangent cone C of \(M\in \mathcal {M}_{n,\Lambda }\) M M n , Λ at infinity has multiplicity one. This enables us to get a Neumann–Poincaré inequality on stationary indecomposable components of C. A corollary is a Liouville theorem for M. For small \(\Lambda >1\) Λ > 1 (we can take any \(\Lambda <\sqrt{2}\) Λ < 2 ), we prove that (i) for \(n\le 7\) n 7 , M is flat; (ii) for \(n>8\) n > 8 and a non-flat M, any tangent cone of M at infinity is a multiplicity one quasi-cylindrical minimal cone in \(\mathbb {R}^{n+m}\) R n + m whose singular set has dimension \(\le n-7\) n - 7 .
