摘要

Bernstein problem for affine maximal type equation 0.1 \(\begin{aligned} u^{ij}D_{ij}w=0, \ \ w\equiv [\det D^2u]^{-\theta },\ \ \forall x\in \Omega \subset {\mathbb {R}}^N \end{aligned}\) u ij D ij w = 0 , w [ det D 2 u ] - θ , x Ω R N has been a core problem in affine geometry. A conjecture (Version I in Section 1) initially proposed by Chern (Proc. Japan-United States Sem., Tokyo, 1977, 17-30) for entire graph with \(N=2, \theta =3/4\) N = 2 , θ = 3 / 4 and then was strengthened by Trudinger-Wang (Invent. Math., 140, 2000, 399-422) to its full generality (Version II), which asserts that any Euclidean complete, affine maximal, locally uniformly convex \(C^4\) C 4 -hypersurface in \({\mathbb {R}}^{N+1}\) R N + 1 must be an elliptic paraboloid. At the same time, the Chern’s conjecture was solved completely by Trudinger-Wang in dimension two. Soon after, the Affine Bernstein Conjecture (Version III) for affine complete affine maximal hypersurfaces was also shown by Trudinger-Wang in (Invent. Math., 150, 2002, 45-60). Thereafter, the Bernstein problem has morphed into a broader conjectures for any dimension \(N\ge 2\) N 2 and any positive constant \(\theta >0\) θ > 0 . The Bernstein theorem of Trudinger-Wang was then generalized by Li-Jia (Results Math., 56 2009, 109-139) to \(N=2, \theta \in (3/4,1]\) N = 2 , θ ( 3 / 4 , 1 ] (see also Zhou (Calc. Var. PDEs., 43 2012, 25-44) for a different proof). In the past twenty years, much effort was done toward higher dimensional issues but not really successful yet, even for the case of dimension \(N=3\) N = 3 . Recently, counter examples were found in (J. Differential Equations, 269 (2020), 7429-7469), toward the Full Bernstein Problem IV for \(N\ge 3,\theta \in (1/2,(N-1)/N)\) N 3 , θ ( 1 / 2 , ( N - 1 ) / N ) and using a much more complicated argument. In this paper, we will construct explicitly various new Euclidean complete affine maximal type hypersurfaces which are not elliptic paraboloid for the improved range \(\begin{aligned} N\ge 2, \ \ \theta \in (0,(N-1)/N]. \end{aligned}\) N 2 , θ ( 0 , ( N - 1 ) / N ] .
