Compact anisotropic stable hypersurfaces with free boundary in convex solid cones (2302.06538v1)

Abstract: We consider a convex solid cone $\mathcal{C}\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with vertex at the origin and boundary $\partial\mathcal{C}$ smooth away from $0$. Our main result shows that a compact two-sided hypersurface $\Sigma$ immersed in $\mathcal{C}$ with free boundary in $\partial\mathcal{C}\setminus{0}$ and minimizing, up to second order, an anisotropic area functional under a volume constraint is contained in a Wulff-shape.
