“…Then the Jacobi operator, which acts on the sections of the normal bundle, becomes a Schrödinger operator acting on functions. This case, perhaps the easiest one, has been studied by many people (see [2], [1], [4], [5], [6], [11], [16] and the references therein). For one-sided minimal hypersurfaces and for minimal submanifolds with high codimension, only a few particular situations have been considered (see [7], [8], [9], [10], [12], [13], [14], [15] and the references therein).…”
