Abstract

We study the existence of higher codimension minimal submanifold with isolated singularity but is not a cone. We generalize the fix point method in Caffarelli et al. (Manuscripta Math 48(1–3):1–18, 1984) to higher codimension setting and show the existence of non-conical higher codimension minimal submanifold (with boundary) with isolated singularity.
