The codimension-one conjecture for stationary integer rectifiable varifolds

About 1 year old · traced to

Let VV be a stationary integer rectifiable mm-dimensional varifold, and let its interior singular set consist of the points of spt(V){\rm spt}(V) that are not regular. The codimension-one conjecture. The interior singular set has codimension not smaller than 11. This is presented as a well-known conjecture, motivated by the absence of examples whose singular set has dimension bigger than m−1m-1 and by partial regularity results.

Claimed by OpenAI. Claims a sharp codimension-one Hausdorff-dimension bound for the singular set of every stationary integral varifold in Euclidean open sets, in arbitrary positive dimension and codimension.

Scope relative to this problem: The source bounds the Hausdorff dimension of the interior singular set by m-1 for stationary integral m-varifolds in Euclidean open sets, without stability or codimension-one ambient restrictions. This directly addresses the stated integer-rectifiable stationary-varifold codimension-one question in that Euclidean setting.
