A Campanato regularity theory for multi-valued functions with applications to minimal surface regularity theory
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The regularity theory of the Campanato space L k ( q , λ ) ( Ω ) has found many applications within the regularity theory of solutions to various geometric variational problems. Here we extend this theory from single-valued functions to multi-valued functions, adapting for the most part Campanato's original ideas ( [Cam64] ). We also give an application of this theory within the regularity theory of stationary integral varifolds. More precisely, we prove a regularity theorem for certain blow-up classes of multi-valued functions, which typically arise when studying blow-ups of sequences of stationary integral varifolds converging to higher multiplicity planes or unions of half-planes. In such a setting, based in part on ideas in [Wic14] , [MW24] , and [BKMW25] , we are able to deduce a boundary regularity theory for multi-valued harmonic functions; such a boundary regularity result would appear to be the first of its kind for the multi-valued setting. In conjunction with [Min21] , the results presented here establish a regularity theorem for stable codimension one stationary integral varifolds near classical cones of density 5 2 .
