Wulff inequality for minimal submanifolds
Wulff inequality for minimal submanifolds
Let be the Wulff shape associated with a positive anisotropic function , and let be an -dimensional minimal submanifold in . For each -dimensional affine subspace , let denote the projection of to . Choose an -dimensional affine subspace minimizing the projected volume, and set
Wulff inequality for minimal submanifolds. The inequality
holds, with equality if and only if is homothetic to some . This is the proposed nonzero-codimension extension of the classical Wulff inequality. The supplied text presents it as a natural question and gives no resolution, while noting that related anisotropic minimal-submanifold inequalities have been studied.
