Minimal hypertori in the four-dimensional sphere

We prove that the four-dimensional round sphere contains a minimally embedded hypertorus, as well as infinitely many, pairwise non-isometric, immersed ones. Our analysis also yields infinitely many, pairwise non-isometric, minimally embedded hyperspheres and thus provides a self-contained solution to Chern’s spherical Bernstein conjecture in dimensions four and six.
