Rectifiability of the singular set of multiple-valued energy minimizing harmonic maps

In this paper we study the singular set of Dirichlet-minimizing $Q$-valued maps from $\mathbb{R}^m$ into a smooth compact manifold $\mathcal{N}$ without boundary. Similarly to what happens in the case of single valued minimizing harmonic maps, we show that this set is always $(m-3)$-rectifiable with uniform Minkowski bounds. Moreover, as opposed to the single valued case, we prove that the target $\mathcal{N}$ being non-positively curved but not simply connected does not imply continuity of the map.
