Solvability of minimal graph equation under pointwise pinching condition for sectional curvatures

We study the asymptotic Dirichlet problem for the minimal graph equation on a Cartan-Hadamard manifold $M$ whose radial sectional curvatures outside a compact set satisfy an upper bound $K(P)\le - \frac{ϕ(ϕ-1)}{r(x)^2}$ and a pointwise pinching condition $|K(P)|\le C_K|K(P')|$ for some constants $ϕ>1$ and $C_K\ge 1$, where $P$ and $P'$ are any 2-dimensional subspaces of $T_xM$ containing the (radial) vector $\nabla r(x)$ and $r(x)=d(o,x)$ is the distance to a fixed point $o\in M$. We solve the asymptotic Dirichlet problem with any continuous boundary data for dimensions $n>4/ϕ+1$.
