Uniqueness of Cylindrical Tangent Cones $C_{p,q} \times \mathbb{R}$

Abstract

We show the uniqueness of the cylindrical tangent cone $C(\mathbb{S}^2 \times \mathbb{S}^4) \times \mathbb{R}$ for area-minimizing hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^9$, completing the uniqueness of all tangent cones of the form $C_{p,q} \times \mathbb{R}$ proved by Simon for dimensions at least 10 and Sz\'ekelyhidi for the Simons cone.
