In this paper we study asymptotic behavior of $n$-superharmonic functions at isolated singularity using the Wolff potential and $n$-capacity estimates in nonlinear potential theory. Our results are inspired by and extend those of Arsove-Huber and Taliaferro in 2 dimensions. To study $n$-superharmonic functions we use a new notion of $n$-thinness by $n$-capacity motivated by a type of Wiener criterion in Arsove-Huber's paper. To extend Taliaferro's work, we employ the Adams-Moser-Trudinger inequality for the Wolff potential, which is inspired by the one used by Brezis-Merle. For geometric applications, we study the asymptotic end behavior of complete conformally flat manifolds as well as complete properly embedded hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space. In both geometric applications the strong $n$-capacity lower bound estimate of Gehring in 1961 is brilliantly used. These geometric applications seem to elevate the importance of $n$-Laplace equations and make a closer tie to the classic analysis developed in conformal geometry in general dimensions.

In this paper we prove the conjecture of Alexander and Currier that states, except for covering maps of equidistant surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space, a complete, nonnegatively curved immersed hypersurface in hyperbolic space is necessarily properly embedded.

Based on properties of n-subharmonic functions we show that a complete, noncompact, properly embedded hypersurface with nonnegative Ricci curvature in hyperbolic space has an asymptotic boundary at infinity of at most two points. Moreover, the presence of two points in the asymptotic boundary is a rigidity condition that forces the hypersurface to be an equidistant hypersurface about a geodesic line in hyperbolic space. This gives an affirmative answer to the question raised by Alexander and Currier in 1990.
