Abstract

In this paper, we establish the asymptotic expansion at infinity of gradient graph in dimension 2 with vanishing mean curvature at infinity. This corresponds to our previous results in higher dimensions and generalizes the results for minimal gradient graph on exterior domain in dimension 2. Different from the strategies for higher dimensions, instead of the equivalence of Green's function on unbounded domains, we apply a version of iteration methods from Bao–Li–Zhang [Calc.Var PDE, 52(2015), pp. 39-63] that is refined by spherical harmonic expansions to provide a more explicit asymptotic behavior than known results.
