Renormalized Area for Minimal Hypersurfaces of 5D Poincaré-Einstein Spaces (2204.06663v2)

Abstract: In this paper we derive a Gauss-Bonnet formula for the renormalized area of Graham-Witten minimal hypersurfaces of 5-dimensional Poincar\'e-Einstein spaces. The formula we derive expresses the renormalized area in terms of integrals of pointwise scalar Riemannian invariants. We also prove a result which gives a characterization of minimal hypersurfaces with $L^2$ second fundamental form in terms of conformal geometry at infinity.
