On the Almgren minimality of the product of a paired calibrated set with a calibrated set of codimension 1 with singularities, and new Almgren minimal cones

In this paper, we prove that the product of a paired calibrated set and a set of codimension 1 calibrated by a coflat calibration with small singularity set is Almgren minimal. This is motivated by the attempt to classify all possible singularities for Almgren minimal sets--Plateau's problem in the setting of sets. In particular, a direct application of the above result leads to various types of new singularities for Almgren minimal sets, e.g. the product of any paired calibrated cone (such as the cone over the $d-2$ skeleton of the unit cube in $\R^d, d\ge 4$) with homogeneous area minimizing hypercones (such as the Simons cone).
