Abstract

In this survey article we consider equations related to the minimal surface equation div Tu = 0, where Tu = ∇u √1+|∇u|2 , ∇u is the gradient of u, and derive some structural inequalities related to the vector function Tu. These structural inequalities give rise to striking uniqueness properties of the solutions.
