Minimal surfaces and the Allen--Cahn equation on 3-manifolds: Index, multiplicity, and curvature estimates

O Chodosh, C Mantoulidis - Annals of Mathematics, 2020 - projecteuclid.org
Abstract The Allen--Cahn equation is a semilinear PDE which is deeply linked to the theory
of minimal hypersurfaces via a singular limit. We prove curvature estimates and strong sheet …
