The best modulus of continuity for solutions of the minimal surface equation

Graham H. Williams

Vol. 129 (1987), No. 1, 193–208
Abstract

We consider the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface equation on a bounded domain in Rn which has nonnegative mean curvature. We give a modulus of continuity for the solution u in terms of the modulus of continuity of the boundary values ϕ. The modulus obtained is shown to be best possible.
