\begin{abstract}
The goal of this note is to continue the investigation started in
Part One of the structure of ``blown up'' sets of the form
$\mathcal{P}\times \mathbb{R}$  and $\mathcal{N}\times
\mathbb{R}$ when $\mathcal{P}, \mathcal{N} \subset
\mathbb{R}^{2}$  and $\mathcal{P}$ (or $\mathcal{N}$) minimizes
an appropriate functional and the domain has a nonconvex corner.
Sets like $\mathcal{P}\times \mathbb{R}$ can be the limits of
the blow ups of subgraphs of solutions of capillary surface or
other prescribed mean curvature problems, for example. Danzhu Shi
recently proved that in a wedge domain $\Omega$  whose boundary
has a nonconvex corner at a point $O$ and assuming the correctness
of the Concus-Finn Conjecture for contact angles $0$ and $\pi$, a
capillary surface in positive gravity in $\Omega\times\mathbb{R}$
must be discontinuous under certain conditions. As an application,
we extend the conclusion of Shi's Theorem to the case where the
prescribed mean curvature is zero without any assumption about the
Concus-Finn Conjecture.

\section{Introduction}

Consider the nonparametric prescribed mean curvature problem with
contact angle boundary data in the cylinder
$\Omega\times\mathbb{R}$
\begin{gather}
\label{mean curvature}
Nf  =  H(x,f) \quad\text{for } x\in \Omega    \\
Tf \cdot \mathbf{\nu}  =  \cos \gamma   \quad\text{on } \partial \Omega,
\label{contactBCn}
\end{gather}
where $n\ge 2$, $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$  is bounded and
open,  $Tf = \nabla f/\sqrt{1 + |\nabla  f|^{2}}$,
$Nf = \nabla \cdot Tf$, $\mathbf{\nu}$ is the exterior unit normal on
$\partial \Omega$, $\gamma: \partial\Omega\to [0,\pi]$  and
$f\in C^{2}(\Omega)$. As in Part 1 of \cite{JeffresLan1A}, we  consider
variational solutions of (\ref{mean curvature})-(\ref{contactBCn})
and sequences $\{f_{j}\}$ which converge locally to generalized
solutions $f_{\infty}:\Omega_{\infty}\to [-\infty,\infty]$  of
(\ref{mean curvature})-(\ref{contactBCn}) of the functional
\begin{equation}
\label{JimXX} \mathcal{F}_{\infty} (g) = \int
_{\Omega_{\infty}} \sqrt{1+ | Dg |^{2}} \,dx -
\int_{\partial\Omega_{\infty}}  \cos(\gamma_{\infty})g \,dH_{n}
\end{equation}
in the sense that for each compact subset $K$  of
$\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$  with finite perimeter, $U_{\infty}$  minimizes
the functional $F_{K}$  defined on subsets of
$\Omega_{\infty}\times \mathbb{R}$  by
$$
F_{K}(V)=\int_{K\cap (\Omega_{\infty}\times \mathbb{R})}
|D\phi_{V}| - \int_{K\cap (\partial \Omega_{\infty}\times
\mathbb{R})} \cos(\gamma_{\infty})\phi_{V}\,dH_{n};
$$
here $U_{\infty}=\{(x,t)\in \Omega_{\infty}\times 
\mathbb{R}:t<f_{\infty}(x)\}$ denotes the subgraph of $f_{\infty}$. The
sets
\begin{gather}
\label{PPP} \mathcal{P} = \{ x \in \Omega_{\infty} : f_{\infty}
(x) = \infty \},\\
\label{NNN} \mathcal{N} = \{ x \in \Omega_{\infty} : f_{\infty}
(x) = - \infty \},
\end{gather}
have a special structure which is of principal interest to us. The
set  $\mathcal{P}$ minimizes the functional
\begin{equation}
\label{AAA}
\Phi (A)  = \int  _{\Omega_{\infty}} | D \phi_{A} |
-  \int_{\partial\Omega_{\infty}} \cos(\gamma_{\infty}) \phi_{A} \,dH_{n}.
\end{equation}
and the set  $\mathcal{N}$ minimizes the functional
\begin{equation}
\label{BBB}
\Psi (A)  = \int  _{\Omega_{\infty}} | D \phi_{A} |
+ \int_{\partial\Omega_{\infty}} \cos(\gamma_{\infty}) \phi_{A} \,dH_{n}
\end{equation}
in the appropriate sense (e.g. \cite{Gui:80}, \cite{Tam:86a}). Set
$n=2$. When $\Omega_{\infty}$  has a corner at
$O\in \partial \Omega_{\infty}$  which is convex, the possible geometries of
$\mathcal{P}$  and $\mathcal{N}$  were given in
\cite[Theorems 2.1 and 2.2]{JeffresLan1A}. When $\Omega_{\infty}$  
has a corner at
$O\in \partial \Omega_{\infty}$  which is nonconvex, we obtain these
geometries in Theorems \ref{thm4} and \ref{thm5}.
%%%%% 

Our goals here and in \cite{JeffresLan1A} are to (i) provide a
reference which lists the geometric shapes of all minimizers
$\mathcal{P}$  of $\Phi$  and $\mathcal{N}$  of $\Psi$;
(ii) illustrate techniques used previously (e.g. \cite{Tam:84}) when
$\alpha<\pi/2$  and $\gamma_{1}=\gamma_{2}$; and
(iii) provide applications of these results by proving restricted (i.e.
the mean curvature is zero) versions of the Concus-Finn Conjecture
(i.e. \cite[Theorem 3.4]{JeffresLan1A}) and the conclusion
of Shi's \cite[Theorem 6]{Shi2}
(i.e. Theorem \ref{thm6}). In \cite{JL3}, these results are
used as a fundamental reference for new proofs of the Concus-Finn
Conjecture for convex and nonconvex corners. 
Additional investigations of variational problems in
$\mathbb{R}^{3}$  which use blow-up techniques, including
possibly Dirichlet problems, may find these results valuable.
Finally, determining the possible geometries of $\mathcal{P}$ and
$\mathcal{N}$  when $n>2$  would be a difficult task which might
have important applications to variational problems in
$\mathbb{R}^{n}$; we hope our results serve as a first step in
this direction.

\section{Statement of Results}

Let $\Omega$  be an open subset of $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ with a
corner at $O=(0,0)\in  \partial \Omega$  such that, for some
$\delta_{0}>0$, $\partial \Omega$ is piecewise smooth in
$B_{\delta_{0}}(O)$  and $\partial \Omega \cap B_{\delta_{0}}(O)$
consists of two $C^{1, \lambda }$  arcs  ${\partial}^{+}\Omega$ and
$\partial^{-}\Omega,$ with \( \lambda \in (0,1), \)
whose tangent lines approach the lines
$L^{+}= \{\theta = \alpha\}$ and $L^{-}=\{ \theta = - \alpha\}$,
respectively, as the point $O$ is approached. Let $\mathbf{\nu}^{+}$
and  $\mathbf{\nu}^{-}$   denote the exterior unit normals on
$\partial^{+} \Omega$ and $\partial^{-} \Omega$  respectively.
Here we assume $\alpha\in (0,\pi)$, polar coordinates relative to
$O$  are denoted  by $r$ and $\theta$  and $B_{\delta}(O)$ is the
ball in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$  of radius $\delta$ about $O$. Let
$(x^{+}(s),y^{+}(s))$  be an arclength parametrization of
${\partial}^{+}\Omega$  and $(x^{-}(s),y^{-}(s))$  be an arclength
parametrization of ${\partial}^{-}\Omega$, where $s=0$
corresponds to the point $O$  for both  parametrizations. We will
assume $\gamma_{1}=\lim_{s\downarrow 0}\gamma(x^{+}(s),y^{+}(s))$
and $\gamma_{2}=\lim_{s\downarrow 0}\gamma(x^{-}(s),y^{-}(s))$
both exist and $\gamma_{1}, \gamma_{2} \in (0,\pi)$. In this case,
$$
\Omega_{\infty} =\{(r\cos \theta, r\sin \theta):r>0, -\alpha<\theta<\alpha\},
$$
$(\partial \Omega_{\infty})\setminus \{O\}=\Sigma_{1} \cup \Sigma_{2}$  with
\begin{gather*}
\Sigma_{j} =\{(r\cos \theta, r\sin \theta):r>0, \theta=(-1)^{j+1}\alpha\},
\quad j=1,2,
\\
\lim_{s\downarrow 0} \nu^{+}(s)=\nu_{1}=(-\sin(\alpha),\cos(\alpha)), \quad
\lim_{s\downarrow 0} \nu^{-}(s)=\nu_{2}=(-\sin(\alpha),-\cos(\alpha))
\end{gather*}
and the limiting contact angle $\gamma_{\infty}$  equals
$\gamma_{1}$  on $\Sigma_{1}$  and $\gamma_{2}$  on $\Sigma_{2}$.
A set $\mathcal{P}\subset \Omega_{\infty}$  minimizes $\Phi$   if
and only if for each $T>0$,
$$
\Phi_{T} (\mathcal{P}) \le \Phi_{T} (\mathcal{P} \cup S) \quad
\text{and} \quad  \Phi_{T} (\mathcal{P}) \le \Phi_{T} (\mathcal{P}
\setminus S)   \quad \text{for every } S\subset
\Omega_{\infty}^{T}\ ,
$$
where $\Omega_{\infty}^{T}= \overline{B_{T}(O)}\cap \Omega_{\infty}$,
$\Sigma_{j}^{T}= \overline{B_{T}(O)}\cap  \Sigma_{j}$, $j=1,2$, and
\begin{align*}
\Phi_{T} (A)&= \int _{\Omega_{\infty}^{T}} | D \phi_{A}
| - \cos (\gamma_{1}) \int _{\Sigma_{1}^{T}}
\phi_{A} d H^{1} - \cos (\gamma_{2})
\int _{\Sigma_{2}^{T}} \phi_{A} d H^{1}\\
&= H^{1} (\Omega_{\infty}^{T} \cap \partial A) - \cos
(\gamma_{1}) H^{1} (\Sigma_{1}^{T} \cap \partial A) -
\cos (\gamma_{2}) H^{1} (\Sigma_{2}^{T} \cap \partial A)\ .
\end{align*}
A set $\mathcal{N}\subset \Omega_{\infty}$  minimizes $\Psi$   if
and only if for each $T>0$,
$$
\Psi_{T} (\mathcal{N}) \le \Psi_{T} (\mathcal{N} \cup S)   \quad
\text{and}  \quad \Psi_{T} (\mathcal{N}) \le \Psi_{T} (\mathcal{N}
\setminus S)   \quad\text{for every } S\subset
\Omega_{\infty}^{T}
$$
where
\begin{align*}
\Psi_{T} (A)
&= \int _{\Omega_{\infty}^{T}} | D \phi_{A}
| + \cos (\gamma_{1}) \int _{\Sigma_{1}^{T}} \phi_{A} d H^{1}
+ \cos (\gamma_{2}) \int _{\Sigma_{2}^{T}} \phi_{A} d H^{1}\\
&= H^{1} (\Omega_{\infty}^{T} \cap \partial A)
+ \cos (\gamma_{1}) H^{1} (\Sigma_{1}^{T} \cap \partial A)
+  \cos (\gamma_{2}) H^{1} (\Sigma_{2}^{T} \cap \partial A).
\end{align*}
If $\mathcal{P}$  minimizes $\Phi$, then after modification on a
set of measure zero, we may assume $\partial \mathcal{P}$
coincides with the essential boundary of $\mathcal{P}$  (e.g.
\cite[Theorem 1.1]{Gui:80}) and $\Omega_{\infty}\cap\partial
\mathcal{P}$ consists of a union of rays. If $\mathcal{N}$
minimizes $\Psi$, then the same holds for $\partial \mathcal{N}$
and $\Omega_{\infty}\cap\partial \mathcal{N}$. We may also assume
$\mathcal{P}$  and $\mathcal{N}$  are open.


In the following theorems, we determine the geometric shapes of
$\mathcal{P}$  (Theorem \ref{thm4}) and $\mathcal{N}$
(Theorem \ref{thm5}); cases
(viii) and (xi) are special cases of (x) and (xiii) respectively
and are included separately to assist in the descriptions of cases
(ix) and (xii). To illustrate these geometries,  we provide
Figures \ref{Combo2} and \ref{Combo3}; cases (viii) and (xi) in
Figure \ref{Combo2} are special cases of (x) and (xiii)
respectively and are included separately to illustrate cases (ix)
and (xii). The shaded regions in these figures illustrate
$\mathcal{P}$  and the unshaded regions illustrate $\mathcal{N}$;
we note that these figures should be interpreted independently
and, while $\mathcal{P}$ and  $\mathcal{N}$  must be disjoint, it
is not true in general that
$\overline{\mathcal{P}}\cup \overline{\mathcal{N}}\in \{\emptyset,
\overline{\Omega_{\infty}}\}$. This is illustrated by Scherk or
skewed  Scherk surfaces. For example, let $a>0$  and set
$$
f(x,y)=\frac{1}{a}\big( \ln(\sin(ax)) - \ln(\sin(ay)) \big) \quad
\text{if } 0<x<\frac{\pi}{a}, \; 0<y<\frac{\pi}{a}.
$$
Consider first $\Omega=\Omega_{0}\cup  \Omega_{1}\cup \Omega_{2}$, where
$$
\Omega_{0} = (0,\frac{\pi}{a}]\times (0,\frac{\pi}{a}],  \quad
\Omega_{1} = (0,\frac{\pi}{a})\times (\frac{\pi}{a},\frac{2\pi}{a}), \quad
\Omega_{2} = (\frac{\pi}{a},\frac{2\pi}{a})\times (0,\frac{\pi}{a}),
$$
$\gamma:\partial\Omega \to [0,\pi]$  defined by
$$
\gamma(x,y)= \begin{cases}
0 &\text{if } y=0,0<x<\frac{\pi}{a}\text{ or }y>\frac{\pi}{a} \\
\pi  &\text{if }x=0,0<y<\frac{\pi}{a}\text{ or }x>\frac{\pi}{a}
\end{cases}
$$
and $u:\Omega\to [-\infty,\infty]$ defined by
$$
u(x,y) = \begin{cases}
\infty &\text{if } (x,y)\in \Omega_{1}   \\
f(x,y) &\text{if } (x,y)\in \Omega_{0}   \\
-\infty &\text{if }(x,y)\in \Omega_{2}.
\end{cases}
$$
Notice that $u$  is a generalized solution of (\ref{mean
curvature})-(\ref{contactBCn})  with $H\equiv 0$  and the sets
$\mathcal{P}=\{(x,y):u(x,y)=\infty\}$  and
$\mathcal{N}=\{(x,y):u(x,y)=-\infty\}$ are $\Omega_{1}$  and $\Omega_{2}$
respectively  (recall that we require $\mathcal{P}$  and
$\mathcal{N}$ to be open).

We can, of course, modify this example so the domain $\Omega$  is convex.
Set $\Omega=\{ (x,y) : 0<x<\frac{\pi}{a}, \ |y|<x \}$  and define
$u:\Omega\to [-\infty,\infty]$  by
$$
u(x,y) = \begin{cases}
f(x,y) &\text{if } 0<x<\frac{\pi}{a}, \; 0<y\le x  \\
\infty &\text{if } 0<x\le\frac{\pi}{a}, \; -x<y<0.
\end{cases}
$$
Then $u$  is a generalized solution of
(\ref{mean curvature})-(\ref{contactBCn}) with $H\equiv 0$
for a suitable choice of $\gamma:\partial\Omega \to [0,\pi]$.

Since $\Omega_{\infty}$  is an infinite sector here and in
\cite{JeffresLan1A}, the examples above do not apply. In the
special case where $\alpha<\pi/2$  and
$\gamma_{1}=\gamma_{2}=\frac{\pi}{2}-\alpha$, Tam (\cite{Tam:86b})
shows that if $\mathcal{P}\neq\emptyset$  and
$\mathcal{N}\neq\emptyset$, then
 $\overline{\mathcal{P}}\cup \overline{\mathcal{N}}=\overline{\Omega_{\infty}}$.
On the basis of suggestive, but not conclusive, comparison arguments and
interesting discussions with
Robert Finn, to whom we offer our thanks, we set the conjecture:

\begin{conjecture} \label{conject1}
Suppose $\mathcal{P}\cup \mathcal{N} \neq \emptyset$. Then
$\overline{\mathcal{P}}\cup \overline{\mathcal{N}}=\overline{\Omega_{\infty}}$.
\end{conjecture}

\section{Applications to capillarity}


Consider the stationary liquid-gas interface formed by an incompressible
fluid in a vertical cylindrical tube with cross-section $\Omega$.
For simplicity, we assume that near $(0,0)$, $\partial\Omega$  has straight
sides (as in \cite{Shi2})
and so we may assume
\begin{equation}
\label{yazoo}
\Omega=\{(r\cos(\theta), r\sin(\theta)) : 0<r<1, -\alpha<\theta<\alpha\}.
\end{equation}
In a microgravity environment or in a downward-oriented gravitational field,
this interface will be a nonparametric surface $z=f(x,y)$  which is a
solution of the boundary value problem
(\ref{mean curvature})-(\ref{contactBCn}) with $H(z)=\kappa z + \lambda$;
that is,
\begin{gather} \label{capillary equation}
Nf = \kappa f + \lambda \quad \text{in  } \Omega    \\
Tf \cdot \mathbf{\nu} = \cos \gamma  \quad \text{a.e.  on  } \partial \Omega
\label{contactBC}
\end{gather}
where $Tf = \nabla f/\sqrt{1 + |\nabla  f|^{2}}$,
 $Nf = \nabla \cdot Tf$,
$\mathbf{\nu}$ is the exterior unit normal on  $\partial \Omega$,
$\kappa$ and $\lambda$ are constants with
$\kappa\ge 0$,
$\gamma = \gamma (x,y)\in [0,\pi]$  is the angle at which the liquid-gas
interface meets the vertical cylinder  (\cite{Finn:86}) and
$\gamma_{1},\gamma_{1}\in (0,\pi)$ are as in \S 2.
Many authors have studied the nonparametric capillary problem
\eqref{capillary equation}-\eqref{contactBC},
prominently among them are Paul Concus and Robert Finn
(e.g. see
\cite{CF:96,Finn:86,Finn:96,FinnNotices,Finn:01, FinnMilan,FinnMathInt});
the first paper establishing existence was \cite{Emmer1973}
(see also \cite{JT1977}).

We are interested in the behavior of a solution $f$  of
\eqref{capillary equation}-\eqref{contactBC}
``at'' $(0,0)$.
For nonconvex corners, Shi followed the example of an illustration
 Concus and Finn used for convex corners in
\cite{CF:96} and divided the square $(0,\pi)\times (0,\pi)$
into five distinct regions;
these regions, illustrated in Figure \ref{NC_CFR} below, are:

\noindent $\mathcal{R} = \{ (\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2}): 2\alpha-\pi
\le \gamma_{1}+\gamma_{2} \le 3\pi-2\alpha, \pi-2\alpha\le
\gamma_{1}-\gamma_{2}\le 2\alpha-\pi \}$

\noindent $\mathcal{D}_{1}^{+} = \{ (\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2}):
\gamma_{1}+\gamma_{2} <  2\alpha-\pi\}$

\noindent $\mathcal{D}_{1}^{-} = \{ (\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2}):
\gamma_{1}+\gamma_{2} > 3\pi-2\alpha\}$

\noindent $\mathcal{D}_{2}^{+} = \{ (\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2}):
\gamma_{1}-\gamma_{2}<\pi-2\alpha \}$

\noindent $\mathcal{D}_{2}^{-} = \{ (\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2}):
\gamma_{1}-\gamma_{2} > 2\alpha-\pi \}$.

   Shi assumed the Concus-Finn Conjecture was true for
$\gamma_{1}\in \{0,\pi \}$  and $\gamma_{2}\in \{0,\pi \})$ and
proved in \cite{Shi} and \cite{Shi2} that a solution $f\in
C^{2}(\Omega)\cap C^{1}(\overline{\Omega}\setminus \{O\})$ of
\eqref{capillary equation} and \eqref{contactBC}  must be
discontinuous at $O$  when $(\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2})\in \mathcal{
D}_{1}^{+} \cup \mathcal{D}_{1}^{-} \cup \mathcal{D}_{2}^{+} \cup
\mathcal{D}_{2}^{-}$ and $\kappa>0$. Our goal here is to reach the
same conclusion when $\kappa=\lambda=0$  and to prepare the
necessary background for a direct proof of the ``nonconvex
Concus-Finn conjecture'' in \cite{JL3}.



To determine the behavior of $f$  near $(0,0)$, we need
first to determine the behavior of the Gauss map on the edge $\{
(0,0,z):z\in \mathbb{R} \}$. For $\beta\in (-\alpha,\alpha)$, let
$t_{\beta}$  denote the set of sequences $(X_{j})$  in $\Omega$
which satisfy
\begin{equation}
\label{krogoth}
\lim_{j\to\infty} X_{j}=(0,0) \quad \text{and} \quad
\lim_{j\to\infty}\frac{X_{j}}{|X_{j}|} = (\cos(\beta),\sin(\beta)).
\end{equation}
For a given solution 
$f\in C^{2}(\Omega)\cap C^{1}(\overline{\Omega}\setminus \{O\})$
of \eqref{capillary equation} and \eqref{contactBC}, we define
\begin{equation}
\label{rabbit}
\vec n(x,y)=\vec n_{f}(x,y)=\big(Tf(x,y),
\frac{-1}{\sqrt{1+|\nabla f(x,y)|^2}}\big)
\end{equation}
to be the (downward) unit normal to the graph of $f$  at
$(x,y,f(x,y))$. Let $S_{0}^{2} = \{ (x,y,0):x,y\in
\mathbb{R},\; x^2+y^2=1 \}$.

\begin{lemma} \label{lem1}
Suppose $\alpha > \pi/2$,
$(\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2})\in D^{+}_{1}\cup D^{-}_{1}
\cup D^{+}_{2}\cup D^{-}_{2}$,
$f$  is a solution of \eqref{capillary equation} and \eqref{contactBC},
$\beta\in (-\alpha,\alpha)$, and $(X_{j}) \in t_{\beta}$  such that
 $\eta=\lim_{j\to\infty}\vec n_{f}(X_{j})$  exists.
Then $\eta\in S_{0}^{2}$.
\end{lemma}


It is a fact that no nonvertical plane in $\mathbb{R}^3$  meets
$L^{+}\times \mathbb{R}$  in an angle of $\gamma_{1}$ and
$L^{-}\times \mathbb{R}$  in an angle of $\gamma_{2}$  when
$(\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2})\in D^{+}_{1}\cup D^{-}_{1}\cup
D^{+}_{2}\cup D^{-}_{2}$  in Figure \ref{NC_CFR}. The proof of the
lemma follows as in the proof of \cite[Lemma 3.1]{JeffresLan1A}.


\begin{remark} \label{rmk1} \rm
As noted in \cite[Remark 3.2]{JeffresLan1A}, we may assume in this
section that $\Omega$  and $\gamma$ are as described in \S 2 and $f$
satisfies \eqref{capillary equation} and \eqref{contactBC}.
\end{remark}

\begin{lemma} \label{lem2}
Suppose $\alpha > \pi/2$  and $(\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2})$  lies in $D^{+}_{2}$
(i.e. $\gamma_{1}-\gamma_{2}<\pi-2\alpha$).
Let $f\in C^{2}(\Omega)\cap C^{1}(\overline{\Omega}\setminus \{O\})$
satisfy \eqref{capillary equation} and \eqref{contactBC}.
Let $\beta\in (-\alpha,\alpha)$  and let  $\{ (x_{j},y_{j})\}\in t_{\beta}$.
\begin{itemize}
\item[(i)]  If $\beta\in [-\alpha+\pi-\gamma_{2},\alpha-\gamma_{1}]$, then
$\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n(x_{j},y_{j}) = (-\sin(\beta), \cos(\beta),0)$.

\item[(ii)]  If $\beta\in (-\alpha,-\alpha+\pi-\gamma_{2}]$, then

$\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n(x_{j},y_{j}) = (-\sin(-\alpha+\pi-\gamma_{2}), 
\cos(-\alpha+\pi-\gamma_{2}),0)$.

\item[(iii)]  If $\beta\in [\alpha-\gamma_{1},\alpha)$,
$\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n(x_{j},y_{j}) = (-\sin(\alpha-\gamma_{1}), 
\cos(\alpha-\gamma_{1}),0)$.
\end{itemize}
\end{lemma}

In light of Corollary \ref{coro1}, the proof of this lemma is essentially the
same as that of \cite[Lemma 3.1]{JeffresLan1A}.


\begin{lemma} \label{lem3}
Suppose $\alpha > \pi/2$  and $(\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2})$  lies in $D^{-}_{2}$
(i.e. $\gamma_{1}-\gamma_{2}>2\alpha-\pi$).
Let $f\in C^{2}(\Omega)\cap C^{1}(\overline{\Omega}\setminus \{O\})$
satisfy \eqref{capillary equation} and \eqref{contactBC}.
Let $\beta\in (-\alpha,\alpha)$  and let  $\{ (x_{j},y_{j})\}\in t_{\beta}$.
\begin{itemize}

\item[(i)]  If $\beta\in [-\alpha+\gamma_{2},\alpha+\gamma_{1}-\pi]$, then
$\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n(x_{j},y_{j}) = (\sin(\beta), -\cos(\beta),0)$.

\item[(ii)]  If $\beta\in (-\alpha,-\alpha+\gamma_{2}]$, then

$\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n(x_{j},y_{j}) = (\sin(-\alpha+\gamma_{2}), 
-\cos(-\alpha+\gamma_{2}),0)$.

\item[(iii)]  If $\beta\in [\alpha+\gamma_{1}-\pi,\alpha)$, then

$\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n(x_{j},y_{j}) = (\sin(\alpha+\gamma_{1}-\pi), 
-\cos(\alpha+\gamma_{1}-\pi),0)$.
\end{itemize}
\end{lemma}

In light of Corollary \ref{coro2}, the proof of this lemma follows using the
techniques in the proof of \cite[Lemma 3.1]{JeffresLan1A}.


\begin{lemma} \label{lem4}
Suppose $\alpha > \pi/2$  and $(\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2})$  lies in 
$D^{+}_{1}\cup D^{-}_{1}$.
Let $f\in C^{2}(\Omega)\cap C^{1}(\overline{\Omega}\setminus \{O\})$
satisfy \eqref{capillary equation} and \eqref{contactBC}.
Then one of the following conclusions holds:
\begin{itemize}

\item[(i)]  For each
$\beta\in (-\alpha,-\alpha+\min\{\gamma_{2},\pi-\gamma_{2}\})$
and each sequence $(X_{j})\in t_{\beta}$,
$$
\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n_{f}(x_{j},y_{j})
 = (\cos(\theta_{1}), \sin(\theta_{1}),0),
$$
where $\theta_{1}= -\alpha - \gamma_{2}- \pi/2$.

\item[(ii)]  For each
$\beta\in (-\alpha,-\alpha+\min\{\gamma_{2},\pi-\gamma_{2}\})$
and each sequence $(X_{j})\in t_{\beta}$,
$$
\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n_{f}(x_{j},y_{j})
= (\cos(\theta_{2}), \sin(\theta_{2}),0),
$$
 where $\theta_{2}= -\alpha + \gamma_{2}- \pi/2$.
\end{itemize}
\end{lemma}

\begin{proof}
We have $\gamma_{1}+\gamma_{2}\in (0,2\alpha-\pi)\cup (3\pi-2\alpha,2\pi)$.
Let us define
$$
C_{\beta}(f)=\{ \eta\in S^{2} :\eta=\lim_{j\to\infty}
\vec n_{f}(X_{j}) \text{ for  some }  (X_{j})\in t_{\beta} \}
$$
for each $\beta\in (-\alpha,\alpha)$  and set
$C(f)=\cup_{\beta\in (-\alpha,\alpha)} C_{\beta}(f)$.
 From items (a) of Lemmas \ref{lem6}-\ref{lem13}
 (see \S 6) and a simple computation, we have
$$
C_{\beta}(f) \subset \{ (\cos(\theta_{1}), \sin(\theta_{1}),0), \;
(\cos(\theta_{2}), \sin(\theta_{2}),0) \},
$$
when $\beta\in (-\alpha,-\alpha+\min\{\gamma_{2},\pi-\gamma_{2}\} )$.
We argue by contradiction and therefore assume there exist
$\beta_{1},\beta_{2}\in (-\alpha,-\alpha+\min\{\gamma_{2},\pi-\gamma_{2}\} )$,
$(X_{j})\in t_{\beta_{1}}$  and $(Y_{j})\in t_{\beta_{2}}$   such that
\begin{gather*}
\lim_{j\to\infty} \vec n_{f}(X_{j}) = (\cos(\theta_{1}), \sin(\theta_{1}),0),
\\
\lim_{j\to\infty} \vec n_{f}(Y_{j}) = (\cos(\theta_{2}), \sin(\theta_{2}),0).
\end{gather*}
For each $j\in \mathbb{N}$, let $\sigma_{j}$  be the line segment
joining $X_{j}$  and $Y_{j}$. By the Intermediate Value Theorem,
there exists $Z_{j}\in \sigma_{j}$  such that
\begin{equation}
\label{bad beer}
\vec n_{f}(Z_{j})\in \{ (r\cos(-\alpha-\frac{\pi}{2}),
 r\sin(-\alpha-\frac{\pi}{2}),-\sqrt{1-r^2}): -1\le r\le 1\}
\end{equation}
for each $j\in \mathbb{N}$. Since $\lim_{j\to\infty} X_{j}=(0,0)$
and $\lim_{j\to\infty} Y_{j}=(0,0)$, we see that
$\lim_{j\to\infty} Z_{j}=(0,0)$. Using compactness and the
argument in the proof of Lemma \ref{lem6} (see \S 6), we may replace the
sequence $(Z_{j})$  by a subsequence such that
$$
\lim_{j\to\infty}\frac{Z_{j}}{|Z_{j}|} = (\cos(\beta_{3}),\sin(\beta_{3}))
\quad \text{for some } \beta_{3}\in (-\alpha, -\alpha
 +\min\{\gamma_{2},\pi-\gamma_{2}\})
$$
and
$\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n_{j}(Z_{j})=\eta$  exists  and
$\eta \in C_{\beta_{3}}(f)$,
where
$$
f_{j}(X)=\frac{f(|Z_{j}|X)-f(Z_{j})} {|Z_{j}|}
$$
and $\vec n_{j}(x,y)$  is given by (\ref{free beer}).
Now (\ref{bad beer}) and Lemma \ref{lem1} imply
$$
\eta=\pm (\cos(-\alpha-\frac{\pi}{2}),\sin(-\alpha-\frac{\pi}{2}),0).
$$
However, neither of these unit vectors lies in $C_{\beta_{3}}(f)$
and so a contradiction exists.
Thus our claim is established.
 \end{proof}


\begin{lemma} \label{lem5}
Suppose $\alpha > \pi/2$  and
$(\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2})$  lies in $D^{+}_{1}\cup D^{-}_{1}$.
Let $f\in C^{2}(\Omega)\cap C^{1}(\overline{\Omega}\setminus \{O\})$
satisfy \eqref{capillary equation} and \eqref{contactBC}.
Then one of the following conclusions holds:
\begin{itemize}

\item[(i)]  For each
$\beta\in (\alpha-\min\{\gamma_{1},\pi-\gamma_{1}\},\alpha)$
and each sequence $(X_{j})\in t_{\beta}$,
$$
\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n_{f}(x_{j},y_{j})
= (\cos(\theta_{3}), \sin(\theta_{3}),0),
$$
where $\theta_{3}= \alpha - \gamma_{1}+ \pi/2$.

\item[(ii)]  For each
$\beta\in (\alpha-\min\{\gamma_{1},\pi-\gamma_{1}\},\alpha)$,
and each sequence $(X_{j})\in t_{\beta}$,
$$
\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n_{f}(x_{j},y_{j})
= (\cos(\theta_{4}), \sin(\theta_{4}),0),
$$
where $\theta_{4}= \alpha + \gamma_{1}+ \pi/2$.
\end{itemize}
\end{lemma}

 The proof of the lemma above is similar to that of Lemma 4 and uses
items (e) of Lemmas \ref{lem6}-\ref{lem13} in \S 6
in place of items (a) of Lemmas \ref{lem6}-\ref{lem13}.


\begin{theorem}[``Nonconvex Concus-Finn Conjecture'' with $\kappa=\lambda=0$]
\label{thm6}
Suppose \break  $\alpha > \pi/2$  and $\kappa=\lambda=0$  in
\eqref{capillary equation}. Suppose further that
$(\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2})\in D^{+}_{1}\cup D^{-}_{1}\cup D^{+}_{2}
\cup D^{-}_{2}$.
Then every solution of \eqref{capillary equation}-\eqref{contactBC}
must be discontinuous at $O=(0,0)$.
\end{theorem}

Using Lemmas \ref{lem1}-\ref{lem5}, we see that the proof of this theorem 
is the same
as that of  \cite[theorem 3.4]{JeffresLan1A}.


\section{Proofs for nonconvex corners: Theorems \ref{thm4} and \ref{thm5}}

In this section, we assume $\alpha> \pi/2$  and let
$\mathcal{P}$  and $\mathcal{N}$  denote  minimizers of $\Phi$ and
$\Psi$  respectively.


\begin{claim} \label{claim1} \rm
Every component of $\Omega_{\infty}\cap
\partial\mathcal{P}$  is unbounded and every component of
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{N}$  is unbounded.
\end{claim}

This claim is clear since if $L$  is a bounded component of
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial\mathcal{P}$ (or of
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{N}$),  then  $\partial L$
must be two distinct points of $\partial \Omega_{\infty}$  and
$L\subset \Omega_{\infty}$; clearly this is impossible.


\begin{claim} \label{claim2} \rm
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap\partial \mathcal{
P}$  and $\Omega_{\infty}\cap\partial \mathcal{N}$ have at most
two components. If $\Omega_{\infty}\cap\partial \mathcal{P}$  has
a component $M$  which satisfies $\overline{M}\cap
\partial\Omega_{\infty}=\emptyset$, then
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap\partial \mathcal{P}$  has only this one
component $M$. If $\Omega_{\infty}\cap\partial \mathcal{N}$  has a
component $M$  which satisfies $\overline{M}\cap
\partial\Omega_{\infty}=\emptyset$, then
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap\partial \mathcal{N}=M$.
\end{claim}

\begin{proof} Using the arguments in \cite{JeffresLan1A},
\S 5, Claim \ref{claim2}, cases (c), (d), (g) and (h), we see that at
most one component of $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$
can have a point on $\Sigma_{1}$  in its closure. Using the
arguments in \cite{JeffresLan1A}, \S 5, Claim \ref{claim2}, cases (e),
(f), (k) and (l), we see that at most one component of
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$  can have a point on
$\Sigma_{2}$  in its closure.
 From \cite[Lemma 4.9]{JeffresLan1A}, we see that at most two components 
 of $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$
can have $O$  in their closure (and the measure of the angle
between them is at least $\pi$). If there are two distinct
components $L$  and $M$  of $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial
\mathcal{P}$ with ${\overline L}\cap \partial
\Omega_{\infty}=\emptyset$  and ${\overline M}\cap \partial
\Omega_{\infty}=\emptyset$, then $L$  and $M$  must be parallel
(e.g. \cite{JeffresLan1A}, \S 4, (i)-(ii))  and this violates
\cite[Lemma 4.19]{JeffresLan1A}. Hence $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial
\mathcal{P}$  has, at most, five components; let us say
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}=L_{1}\cup L_{2}\cup
M_{1}\cup M_{1}\cup Q$, where $\overline{L_{1}}\cap
\Sigma_{1}\neq\emptyset$, $\overline{L_{2}}\cap
\Sigma_{2}\neq\emptyset$, $M_{1}=\{\theta=\beta_{1}\}$,
$M_{2}=\{\theta=\beta_{2}\}$  (with $\beta_{1}-\beta_{2}\ge\pi$)
and $\overline{Q}\cap \partial \Omega_{\infty}= \emptyset$. We
shall show that the actual maximum number of components is two.


Suppose two components of $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{
P}$  lie in $\{0\le\theta<\alpha\}$ and intersect
$\overline{\Sigma_{1}}$. (In the notation of the previous
paragraph, $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$  contains
$L_{1}$  and $M_{1}$  with $\beta_{1}\ge 0.$) The arguments in
\cite{JeffresLan1A}, \S 5, Claim \ref{claim2}, cases (c), (d), (g) and
(h) then yield a contradiction. Similarly, if two components of
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$  lie in
$\{-\alpha<\theta\le 0\}$ and intersect $\overline{\Sigma_{2}}$
(i.e. $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$  contains $L_{2}$
and $M_{2}$  with $\beta_{1}\le 0$.) then \cite{JeffresLan1A}, \S
5, Claim \ref{claim2}, cases (e), (f), (k) and (l) yield a
contradiction. Hence $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$
can have at most two distinct components whose closures intersect
$\partial \Omega_{\infty}$. The same conclusion holds for
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{N}$.


Suppose $L$  and $M$  are components of $\Omega_{\infty}\cap
\partial \mathcal{P}$   such that $L\cap \partial
\Omega_{\infty}\neq \emptyset$  and $M\cap \partial
\Omega_{\infty} = \emptyset$. This will result in a contradiction.
 From \cite[Lemma 4.19]{JeffresLan1A}, we see that $L$  and $M$  cannot 
 be parallel.
Let $L^{*}$  denote the line which contains $L$  and let $E$
denote the point of intersection of $L^{*}$  and $M$. We may
suppose $\overline{L}\cap \overline{\Sigma_{1}}=\{A\}$; notice
then that $E\in \{-\alpha<\theta\le 0\}$. The contradiction is
obtained by modifying the proofs of \cite{JeffresLan1A}, \S 5,
Claim \ref{claim2}, cases (g) and (h); we include the details here for
the benefit of the reader. If $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial
\mathcal{P}$  has only the two components $L$  and $M$, then
$\partial \mathcal{P}= \Sigma_{2} \cup \overline{OA} \cup L \cup
M$. If $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$  has three
components $L$, $M$  and $L_{2}$ (with $\overline{L_{2}}\cap
\Sigma_{2}=\{Y\}$), then $\partial \mathcal{P}= L_{2} \cup
\overline{OY} \cup \overline{OA} \cup L \cup M$; in this case, we
note that if $L$  and $L_{2}$  are parallel, then $M$  is parallel
to both $L$  and $L_{2}$  and this violates
\cite[Lemma 4.19]{JeffresLan1A}.
 We exclude a potential third component $L_{2}$  of
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$   in our arguments
below since its inclusion would, at most, add a finite number of
fixed terms to the right-hand sides of (\ref{ZZZ}) and
(\ref{UUU}).

\caption{Case (a)}
\label{fig4}
\end{figure}

(a)  Suppose $\mathcal{P}$  has only one component. Let $B$  be
the point of intersection of $L^{*}$   and $\Sigma_{2}$  and let
$D\in L$. Let $C$  be the orthogonal projection of $D$  on line
$M$  and pick $T$  so that $T>\max\{OD,OC,OE\}$. Let $\Delta$  be
the open, nonconvex polygon with boundary $OADCEB$. Since
$\mathcal{P}$  minimizes $\Phi_{T}$, we have $\Phi_{T}(\mathcal{
P})\le \Phi_{T}(\mathcal{P}\setminus \Delta)$. Hence
$$
EC + AD - \cos(\gamma_{1})OA - \cos(\gamma_{2})OB \le EB + CD.
$$
Now  $OA$, $OB$, $EB$  and $EA$  are fixed and $AD=ED-EA$; rewriting 
the inequality above yields
the following inequality in which the right-hand side is fixed while 
the left-hand side goes to infinity
as the length $ED$  goes to infinity:
\begin{equation}
\label{ZZZ}
EC + ED - CD \le \cos(\gamma_{1})OA + \cos(\gamma_{2})OB + EB + EA,
\end{equation}
which is a contradiction.

\label{fig5}
\end{figure}

(b)  Suppose $\mathcal{P}=\mathcal{P}_{1} \cup \mathcal{P}_{2}$,
where $\mathcal{P}_{1}$  and $\mathcal{P}_{2}$ are the disjoint,
convex, open sets with boundaries $\overline{\Sigma_{1}} \cup L
\setminus OA$  and $M$ respectively. Let $B$, $C$, $T$ and
$\Delta$ be as in (a) above and let $D\in L$. Since $\mathcal{
P}$  minimizes $\Phi_{T}$, we have $\Phi_{T}(\mathcal{P})\le
\Phi_{T}(\mathcal{P}\cup \Delta)$. Hence
$$
EC + AD  \le EB + CD - \cos(\gamma_{1})OA - \cos(\gamma_{2})OB.
$$
Now  $OA$, $OB$, $EB$  and $EA$  are fixed and $AD=ED-EA$; rewriting
the inequality above yields the following inequality in which the
right-hand side is fixed while the left-hand side goes to infinity
as the length $ED$  goes to infinity:
\begin{equation}
\label{UUU}
EC + ED - CD \le EB + EA- \cos(\gamma_{1})OA - \cos(\gamma_{2})OB,
\end{equation}
which is a contradiction.

Since cases (a) and (b) and their counterparts when
$\overline{L}\cap \overline{\Sigma_{2}} \neq \emptyset$ represent
the only cases in which $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{
P}$ could have components $L$  and $M$  with $\overline{L}\cap
\partial \Omega_{\infty}\neq \emptyset$  and $\overline{M}\cap
\partial \Omega_{\infty} = \emptyset$, we see that if a component
$M$  of $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$  with
$\overline{M}\cap \partial \Omega_{\infty} = \emptyset$  exists,
then $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$  has no other
components. If no such component $M$  exists, then
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$  could have two
components $L_{1}$  and $L_{2}$  whose closures intersect
$\overline{\Sigma_{1}}$  and $\overline{\Sigma_{2}}$ respectively,
one component $L_{1}$  whose closure intersects $\partial
\Omega_{\infty}$  or $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$
could be empty. A similar argument for $\Omega_{\infty}\cap
\partial \mathcal{N}$  completes the proof of the claim.
 \end{proof}


\begin{claim} \label{claim3} \rm
Suppose $M$  is a component of
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$ and let $\omega$ denote
the unit normal to $M$  in the direction of $\mathcal{P}$. Let
$\sigma$  be the measure of the angle between $\omega$  and
$\nu_{1}$.
\begin{itemize}
\item[(a)] If $\partial\Omega_{\infty}\subset \partial
\mathcal{P}$, then  $\sigma\ge \gamma_{1}$.

\item[(b)] If $\partial\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{
P}=\emptyset$, then  $\sigma\le \gamma_{1}$. \vspace{2mm}
\end{itemize}
\end{claim}

\begin{proof}
Let $\Sigma_{1}^{*}$  denote the line which contains $\Sigma_{1}$
and let $C$  denote the point of intersection of $\Sigma_{1}^{*}$  and $M$.
We will consider the proofs of (a) and (b) separately.

Suppose (a) holds and $\sigma<\gamma_{1}$. Let $A\in\Sigma_{1}$
and pick $B\in M$  so that angle $OAB$  has measure
$\pi-\gamma_{1}$. Notice that $\sigma$  is the measure of angle
$ACB$. Since $\mathcal{P}$  minimizes $\Phi$,
$$
\phi_{T}(\mathcal{P})\le  \phi_{T}(\mathcal{P}\setminus \triangle
ABC)
$$
for $T$  large.
Hence
$$
BC-\cos(\gamma_{1})OA \le AB + OC
$$
or $BC\le AB+\cos(\gamma_{1})AC+OC-\cos(\gamma_{1})OC$.
If $\delta$  is the measure of angle $ABC$  (so $\delta=\gamma_{1}-\sigma$),
then the law of sines
implies
$AC=(\sin(\delta)/\sin(\gamma_{1}))BC$  and
$AB=(\sin(\sigma)/\sin(\gamma_{1})BC$.
Hence
$$
1\le \cos(\gamma_{1}-\sigma) + (1-\cos(\gamma_{1}))\frac{OC}{BC},
$$
as a short calculation shows.
For $BC$  sufficiently large, this yields a contradiction since $OC$
is fixed and $\gamma_{1}-\sigma>0$.

Since $\mathcal{P}$  minimizes $\Phi$,
$$
\phi_{T}(\mathcal{P})\le  \phi_{T}(\mathcal{P}\cup \triangle ABC)
$$
for $T$  large.
Hence
$$
BC \le AB - \cos(\gamma_{1})OA  + OC
$$
or $BC\le AB-\cos(\gamma_{1})AC+OC+\cos(\gamma_{1})OC$.
If $\delta$  is the measure of angle $ABC$
(so $\delta=\sigma-\gamma_{1}$), then
using the law of sines we obtain
$$
1\le -\cos(\pi+\gamma_{1}-\sigma) + (1+\cos(\gamma_{1}))\frac{OC}{BC},
$$
as a short calculation shows.
For $BC$  sufficiently large, this yields a contradiction since $OC$
is fixed and $\pi+\gamma_{1}-\sigma<\pi$.

\begin{claim} \label{claim6} \rm
 Suppose $M$  is a component of
$\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{N}$ and let $\omega$ denote
the unit normal to $M$  in the direction of
$\Omega_{\infty}\setminus\mathcal{N}$. Let $\sigma$  be the
measure of the angle between $\omega$  and $\nu_{2}$.
\begin{itemize}

\item[(a)] If $\partial\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{

\end{itemize}
\end{claim}


\subsection*{Proof of Theorems \ref{thm4} and \ref{thm5}}
 Consider first the case
that $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial \mathcal{P}$  has exactly one
component, denoted by $L$. Then one of the following holds:
$$
\overline{L}\cap \Sigma_{1}\neq \emptyset, \quad
\overline{L}\cap \Sigma_{2}\neq\emptyset,\quad
\overline{L}\cap \partial\Omega_{\infty}=\{O\}\quad\text{or} \quad
\overline{L}\cap \partial\Omega_{\infty}=\emptyset.
$$
Suppose $\overline{L}\cap \Sigma_{1}\neq\emptyset$  and let $A$ be
the point of intersection of $\overline{L}$  and $\Sigma_{1}$. If
$OA\in \overline{\Omega_{\infty}\setminus \mathcal{P}}$, then
\cite[Lemma 4.8]{JeffresLan1A}, implies $\Sigma_{1}\setminus OA$ and
$L$  meet at $A$  in an angle of measure $\gamma_{1}$  and a
slight modification of the argument of the proof of
\cite[Lemma 4.6]{JeffresLan1A},  implies $\gamma_{1}+\pi-\gamma_{2}
\le 2\alpha$. If $OA\in \overline{\mathcal{P}}$, then
\cite[Lemma 4.8]{JeffresLan1A}, implies $OA$  and $L$  meet at $A$
in an angle of measure $\gamma_{1}$  and a slight modification of
the argument of the proof of \cite[Lemma 4.7]{JeffresLan1A}, implies
$\pi-\gamma_{1}+\gamma_{2} \le 2\alpha$. Hence either (ii) or
(iii) of Theorem \ref{thm4} holds. If $\overline{L}\cap
\Sigma_{2}\neq\emptyset$, then \cite[Lemmas 4.6, 4.7, 4.10]{JeffresLan1A}
imply that either (iv) or (v) of Theorem \ref{thm4} holds. If
$\overline{L}\cap \partial\Omega_{\infty}=\{O\}$, then either
$\Sigma_{1}\subset \overline{\mathcal{P}}$ and so (vi) of Theorem \ref{thm4}
holds (by \cite[Lemma 4.6, 4.11]{JeffresLan1A}) or
$\Sigma_{2}\subset \overline{\mathcal{P}}$  and so (vii) of Theorem
\ref{thm4} holds (by \cite[Lemma 4.7, 4.9]{JeffresLan1A})

Suppose $\overline{L}\cap \partial\Omega_{\infty}=\emptyset$. Then
either $\partial\Omega_{\infty}\subset \overline{\mathcal{P}}$  or
$\partial\Omega_{\infty}\cap \overline{\mathcal{P}}=\emptyset$. Let
$\Sigma^{*}_{1}$  and  $\Sigma^{*}_{2}$  be the lines on which
$\Sigma_{1}$  and $\Sigma_{2}$ respectively lie. Now
\cite[Lemma 4.20]{JeffresLan1A} implies $L$  is not parallel to
either $\Sigma^{*}_{1}$  or $\Sigma^{*}_{2}$. Let $A,B \in
\Omega_{\infty}$  satisfy $\Sigma^{*}_{1}\cap L=\{A\}$  and
$\Sigma^{*}_{2}\cap L=\{B\}$. Let $\beta$  and $\delta$  be the
measures of the angles $OAB$  and $OBA$  respectively. Let
$\omega$  denote the unit normal to $L$  in the direction of
$\mathcal{P}$. If $\partial\Omega_{\infty}\subset
\overline{\mathcal{P}}$, then $\beta$  is the measure of the angle
between $\omega$ and $\nu_{1}$, $\delta$  is the measure of the
angle between $\omega$ and $\nu_{2}$, (a) of Claims \ref{claim3}
and \ref{claim4} imply
$\beta\ge \gamma_{1}$ and $\delta\ge \gamma_{2}$  and so (xii) of
Theorem \ref{thm4} holds. If $\partial\Omega_{\infty}\cap
\overline{\mathcal{P}}=\emptyset$, then $\beta$  is the measure of
the angle between $-\omega$  and $\nu_{1}$, $\delta$  is the
measure of the angle between $-\omega$ and $\nu_{2}$, (b) of
Claims \ref{claim3} and \ref{claim4} imply $\beta\ge \pi-\gamma_{1}$ 
 and $\delta\ge \pi-\gamma_{2}$  and so (ix) of Theorem \ref{thm4} holds.

Consider next the case that $\Omega_{\infty}\cap \partial
\mathcal{P}$  has exactly two components, denoted by $L$  and $M$
with $\overline{L}\cap \overline{\Sigma_{1}}=\{A\}$  and
$\overline{M}\cap \overline{\Sigma_{2}}=\{B\}$. Then the following
combinations are possible:
\begin{itemize}
\item[(a)] $A\in \Sigma_{1}$  and $B\in \Sigma_{2}$;

\item[(b)] $A=O$  and $B\in \Sigma_{2}$;

\item[(c)] $A\in \Sigma_{1}$  and $B=O$;

\item[(d)] $A=O$  and $B=O$.

\end{itemize}
If (a) holds, then (xiv) and (xv) of Theorem \ref{thm4}
 follow from \cite[Lemma 4.8, 4.10]{JeffresLan1A}.
If (b) holds, then (xviii) and (xix) of Theorem \ref{thm4} follow
from \cite[Lemmas 4.6, 4.9, 4.10]{JeffresLan1A}.
If (c) holds, then (xvi) and (xvii) of Theorem \ref{thm4} follow
from \cite[Lemmas 4.7, 4.8, 4.11]{JeffresLan1A}.
If (d) holds, then (x) and (xiii) of Theorem \ref{thm4} follow
from \cite[Lemma 4.6, 4.7, 4.9, 4.11]{JeffresLan1A};
we note that (viii) and (xi)  are special cases of (x) and (xiii)
respectively.
This completes the proof of Theorem \ref{thm4}.
The proof of \cite[Theorem 2.2]{JeffresLan1A} follows by similar arguments.

\section{Lemmas \ref{lem6}-\ref{lem13}}


The following lemmas are used in the proofs of Lemmas \ref{lem4} and
\ref{lem5}.
Let us recall that we defined
$$
C_{\beta}(f)=\{ \eta\in S^{2} :\eta=\lim_{j\to\infty}
\vec n_{f}(X_{j}) \text{ for  some }(X_{j})\in t_{\beta} \}
$$
for each $\beta\in (-\alpha,\alpha)$  and set
$C(f)=\cup_{\beta\in (-\alpha,\alpha)} C_{\beta}(f)$.

\begin{lemma} \label{lem6}
Suppose $\alpha > \pi/2$  and $(\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2})$  lies in $D^{+}_{1}$
(i.e. $\gamma_{1}+\gamma_{2}<2\alpha-\pi$).
Suppose further that $\alpha-(\pi-\gamma_{1}) \ge -\alpha+(\pi-\gamma_{2})$,
$\gamma_{1}\le \pi/2$  and $\gamma_{2}\le \pi/2$.
Let $f\in C^{2}(\Omega)\cap C^{1}(\overline{\Omega}\setminus \{O\})$
satisfy \eqref{capillary equation} and \eqref{contactBC} and define
$\vec n(x,y)$   by (\ref{rabbit}).
Then:
\begin{itemize}

\item[(a)]  If $\beta\in (-\alpha,-\alpha+\gamma_{2})$
and $\eta\in C_{\beta}(f)$, then  $\eta$  is one of the following:
 $(-\sin(\alpha-\gamma_{2}), -\cos(\alpha-\gamma_{2}),0)$  or
$(-\sin(\alpha+\gamma_{2}), -\cos(\alpha+\gamma_{2}),0)$.

\item[(b)] If $\beta\in [-\alpha+\gamma_{2},-\alpha+(\pi-\gamma_{2}))$
and $\eta\in C_{\beta}(f)$, then  $\eta$  is one of the following:
$(\cos(\beta-\frac{\pi}{2}), \sin(\beta-\frac{\pi}{2}),0)$,
$(\cos(\omega), \sin(\omega),0)$
or $(\cos(\theta), \sin(\theta),0)$  for some
$\theta\in [2\pi-\alpha+\gamma_{2}-\frac{\pi}{2},\alpha-\gamma_{1}
+\frac{\pi}{2}]$,
where $\omega=\frac{3\pi}{2} - \alpha - \gamma_{2}$.

\item[(c)] If $\beta\in [-\alpha+(\pi-\gamma_{2}),\alpha-(\pi-\gamma_{1})]$
and $\eta\in C_{\beta}(f)$, then  $\eta$  is one of the following:
 $(-\sin(\beta),\cos(\beta),0)$, $(\sin(\beta), -\cos(\beta),0)$
or $(\sin(\theta), -\cos(\theta),0)$  for some
$\theta$  with $\alpha+\pi-\gamma_{1}\le \theta \le 2\pi-\alpha+\gamma_{2}$.

\item[(d)] If $\beta\in (\alpha-(\pi-\gamma_{1}),\alpha-\gamma_{1}]$
and $\eta\in C_{\beta}(f)$, then  $\eta$  is one of the following:
$(-\sin(\beta),\cos(\beta),0)$, $(-\sin(\alpha+\gamma_{1}), 
\cos(\alpha+\gamma_{1}),0)$
or $(\sin(\theta), -\cos(\theta),0)$  for some
$\theta$  with $\alpha+\pi-\gamma_{1}\le \theta \le 2\pi-\alpha+\gamma_{2}$.

\item[(e)]  If $\beta\in (\alpha-\gamma_{1},\alpha)$
and $\eta\in C_{\beta}(f)$, then  $\eta$  is one of the following:
 $(-\sin(\alpha-\gamma_{1}), \cos(\alpha-\gamma_{1}),0)$  or
$(-\sin(\alpha+\gamma_{1}), \cos(\alpha+\gamma_{1}),0)$.
\end{itemize}
\end{lemma}


\begin{proof} Let $\beta\in (-\alpha,\alpha)$  and
$\eta\in C_{\beta}(f)$. Let $\{(x_{j},y_{j}): j\in \mathbb{N} \}$
be a sequence in $\Omega$  satisfying (\ref{krogoth}) such that
$\vec n_{f}(x_{j},y_{j}) \to \eta$  as $j \to \infty$. For each
$j\in \mathbb{N}$, define $f_{j}\in C^{2}(\Omega_{j})\cap
C^{1}(\overline{\Omega_{j}}\setminus \{O\})$ by
$$
f_{j}(x,y)=\frac{f(\epsilon_{j}x,\epsilon_{j}y)-f(x_{j},y_{j})}
{\epsilon_{j}},
$$
where $\epsilon_{j}=\sqrt{x_{j}^2+y_{j}^2}$. Let $U_{j}=\{(x,t)\in
\Omega_{j}\times \mathbb{R}:t<f_{j}(x)\}$  denote the
subgraph of $f_{j}$ and $\vec n_{j}$  be the downward unit normal
to the graph of $f_{j}$; that is,
\begin{equation}
\label{free beer}
\vec n_{j}(x,y)=\big(Tf_{j}(x,y),\frac{-1}
{\sqrt{1+|\nabla f_{j}(x,y)|^2}}\big), \quad (x,y)\in \Omega_{j}.
\end{equation}
Notice that $\vec n_{j}(\frac{x}{\epsilon_{j}},\frac{y}{\epsilon_{j}})=\vec
n_{f}(x,y)$. As in \S 1 of \cite{JeffresLan1A}, there exists a
subsequence of $\{(x_{j},y_{j})\}$, still denoted
$\{(x_{j},y_{j})\}$, and a generalized  solution
$f_{\infty}:\Omega_{\infty}\to [-\infty,\infty]$  of (\ref{JimXX})
such that $f_{j}$  converges to $f_{\infty}$  in the sense that
$\phi_{U_{j}} \to \phi_{U_{\infty}}$  in
$L^{1}_{loc}(\Omega_{\infty}\times \mathbb{R})$ as $j\to \infty$.
Let $\mathcal{P}$  and $\mathcal{N}$   be given by (\ref{PPP}) and
(\ref{NNN}) respectively. Notice that
$f_{j}(x_{j}/\epsilon_{j},y_{j}/\epsilon_{j})=0$  for all $j\in
\mathbb{N}$  and so $f_{\infty}(\cos(\beta),\sin(\beta))=0$. As in
the proof of \cite[Lemma 3.1]{JeffresLan1A}, we see that
$(\Omega_{\infty}\times \mathbb{R})\cap \partial U_{\infty}$  is
the portion of a plane $\Pi$  in $\Omega_{\infty}\times
\mathbb{R}$ with $(\cos(\beta),\sin(\beta),0)\in \Pi$,
$U_{\infty}=\mathcal{P}\times \mathbb{R}$  and
$(\cos(\beta),\sin(\beta))\in \partial\mathcal{
P}\cap\partial\mathcal{N}$. Now
$$
\vec n_{\infty}(\cos(\beta),\sin(\beta))
=\lim_{j\to\infty} \vec n_{j}(\frac{x_{j}}{\epsilon_{j}},
 \frac{y_{j}}{\epsilon_{j}})
=\lim_{j\to\infty} \vec n_{f}(x_{j},y_{j})
=\eta.
$$
and so $\eta$  is the unit normal to $\partial \mathcal{P}\times
\mathbb{R}$  at $(\cos(\beta),\sin(\beta),0)$ pointing into
$\mathcal{P}\times \mathbb{R}$  and to $\partial \mathcal{
N}\times \mathbb{R}$ at $(\cos(\beta),\sin(\beta),0)$ pointing
away from $\mathcal{N}\times \mathbb{R}$. The conclusions of the
lemma follow from Corollary \ref{coro5}.
\end{proof}

The proofs of the following lemmas follow by a similar argument using
Corollaries 6-12
(e.g. Lemma \ref{lem7} uses Corollary \ref{coro6}).

\begin{lemma} \label{lem7}
Suppose $\alpha > \pi/2$  and $(\gamma_{1},\gamma_{2})$  lies in $D^{+}_{1}$
(i.e. $\gamma_{1}+\gamma_{2}<2\alpha-\pi$).
Suppose further that $\alpha-(\pi-\gamma_{1}) < -\alpha+(\pi-\gamma_{2})$,
$\gamma_{1}\le \pi/2$  and $\gamma_{2}\le \pi/2$.
Let $f\in C^{2}(\Omega)\cap C^{1}(\overline{\Omega}\setminus \{O\})$
satisfy \eqref{capillary equation} and \eqref{contactBC} and define
$\vec n(x,y)$   by (\ref{rabbit}).
For each $\beta\in (-\alpha,\alpha)$, there exists a unit vector
$\vec n_{\beta}=\vec n_{\beta}(f)$
such that if $\{ (x_{j},y_{j})\}$  is any sequence  in   $\Omega$
satisfying
$\lim_{j\to\infty} (x_{j},y_{j})=(0,0)$  and (\ref{krogoth}),
then $\lim_{j\to \infty} \vec n(x_{j},y_{j}) = \vec n_{\beta}$.
In addition:

$\theta$  with $\alpha+\pi-\gamma_{1}\le \theta \le 2\pi-\alpha+\gamma_{2}$.

\item[(c)]
