Abstract

Let unu_n be a sequence of mappings from a closed Riemannian surface MM to a general Riemannian manifold NN. If unu_n satisfies \beno \sup_{n}\big(\|\nabla u_n\|_{L^2(M)}+\|\tau(u_n)\|_{L^{p}(M)}\big)\leq \Lambda\quad \text{for some}\,\,p>1, \eeno where τ(un)\tau(u_n) is the tension field of unu_n, then there hold the so called energy identity and neckless property during blowing up. This result is sharp by Parker's example, where the tension fields of the mappings from Riemannian surface are bounded in L1(M)L^1(M) but the energy identity fails.
