Abstract

Let ff be a positive smooth function on a close Riemann surface (M,g). The fenergyf-energy of a map uu from MM to a Riemannian manifold (N,h)(N,h) is defined as Ef(u)=Mfu2dVg.E_f(u)=\int_Mf|\nabla u|^2dV_g. In this paper, we will study the blow-up properties of Palais-Smale sequences for EfE_f. We will show that, if a Palais-Smale sequence is not compact, then it must blows up at some critical points of ff. As a sequence, if an inhomogeneous Landau-Lifshitz system, i.e. a solution of ut=u×τf(u)+τf(u),\su:MS2u_t=u\times\tau_f(u)+\tau_f(u),\s u:M\to S^2 blows up at time \infty, then the blow-up points must be the critical points of ff.
