AbstractWe classify all rotational symmetric solutions of the singular minimal surface equation in both cases $$\alpha <0$$ α < 0 and $$\alpha >0$$ α > 0 . In addition, we discuss further geometric and analytic properties of the solutions, in particular stability, minimizing properties and Bernstein-type results.

One might think that if the minimal surface equation had a solution on a smooth domain D ⊂ Rn with boundary values φ, it would have a solution with boundary values tφ for all 0 ≤ t ≤ 1. We give a counterexample in R2.
