In particular, we show that the space of codimension-1 closed submanifolds of sphere at infinity, which bounds a unique absolutely area minimizing hypersurface in hyperbolic n-space, is dense in the space of all codimension-1 closed submanifolds at infinity. In dimension 3, we also prove that the set of uniqueness curves in asymptotic sphere for area minimizing planes is generic in the set of Jordan curves at infinity. We also give some nonuniqueness results for dimension 3, too.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-10-02T12:02:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "53A10", "49Q05" ], "keywords": [ "asymptotic plateau problem", "unique absolutely area minimizing hypersurface", "closed submanifolds", "hyperbolic space", "simple topological argument" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......5593C" } } }
