For any natural numbers $k \leq n$, the rational cohomology ring of the space of continuous maps $S^{2k-1} \to S^{2n-1}$ (respectively, $S^{4k-1} \to S^{4n-1}$) equivariant under the Hopf action of the circle (respectively, of the group…

We prove that for any two closed Riemannian manifolds $M^{2m}$ ($m\geq 1$) and $N$, there exists a minimizing (extrinsic) $m$-polyharmonic map for every free homotopy class in $[M^{2m}, N]$, provided that the homotopy group $\pi_{2m}(N)$ is…

This paper extends the nonabelian Hodge correspondence for Kaehler manifolds to a larger class of hermitian metrics on complex manifolds called balanced of Hodge-Riemann type. Essentially, it grows out of a few key observations so that the…

We extend the celebrated theorem of Kellogg for conformal diffeomorphisms to the minimizers of Dirichlet energy. Namely we prove that a diffeomorphic minimiser of Dirichlet energy of Sobolev mappings between doubly connected Riemanian…

In this paper we are concerned with harmonic maps and minimal immersions defined on compact Riemannian manifolds and with values in homogenous strongly harmonic manifolds. We show some results on the Morse index by varying these maps along…

For a fixed smooth map $u_0$ between two Riemann surfaces $\Sigma$ and $S$ with non-zero degree, we consider the energy function on Teichm\"uller space $\mc{T}$ of $\Sigma$ that assigns to a complex structure $t\in \mc{T}$ on $\Sigma$ the…

In this paper, we investigate the stratification theory for ``suitable solutions" of harmonic map flows based on the spatial symmetry of tangent measures. Generally, suitable solutions are a category of solutions that satisfy both the…

For any $n \geq 3$ and any closed manifold $\mathcal{N}$ with $\pi_{n+k}(\mathcal{N}) \neq \{0\}$ for some $k \geq 0$, we establish the existence of nontrivial $n$-harmonic maps from $\mathbb{S}^n$ into $\mathcal{N}$. When $k\geq 1$, these…

We propose a novel meshless method to compute harmonic maps and conformal maps for surfaces embedded in the Euclidean 3-space, using point cloud data only. Given a surface, or a point cloud approximation, we simply use the standard cubic…

The energy of any $C^1$ representative of a homotopy class of maps from a compact and connected Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature into a complete Riemannian manifold with no conjugate points is bounded below by a constant…

We consider harmonic diffeomorphisms to a fixed hyperbolic target $Y$, from a family of domain Riemann surfaces degenerating along a Teichm\"{u}ller ray. We use the work of Minsky to show that there is a limiting harmonic map from the…

The aim of this note is to extend the results in arXiv:1504.02043 to the case of approximate harmonic maps. More precisely, we will proved that the singular strata $S^k(u)$ of an approximate harmonic map are k-rectifiable, and we will show…

Given a complete doubling metric measure space $X$ that supports a $2$-Poincar\'e inequality, we approximate harmonic functions on a bounded domain $\Omega$ with a prescribed Newton-Sobolev boundary data. Our approach is based on the…
