Description
We develop a unified variational framework for singular energies that arise as analytic models in Simon's symmetric minimal surface program. Motivated by the linearized profile $\Delta u \sim u^{-1}$, we study local minimizers of energies whose potential $\sigma$ may diverge at the origin. This class encompasses both the logarithmic potentials linked to the geometry of minimal cones and the negative-power potentials appearing in modern free boundary models.
