We show the smoothness of weakly Dirac-harmonic maps from a closed spin Riemann surface into stationary Lorentzian manifolds, and obtain a regularity theorem for a class of critical elliptic systems without anti-symmetry structures.
We establish the regularity theory for certain critical elliptic systems with an anti-symmetric structure under inhomogeneous Neumann and Dirichlet boundary constraints. As applications, we prove full regularity and smooth estimates at the…
For $n\ge 3$, let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $R^n$ and $N$ be a compact Riemannian manifold in $R^L$ without boundary. Suppose that $u_n\in W^{1,n}(\Omega,N)$ are the Palais-Smale sequences of the Dirichlet $n$-energy functional and…
For a $n$-dimensional spin manifold $M$ with a fixed spin structure and a spinor bundle $\Sigma M$, we prove an $\epsilon$-regularity theorem for weak solutions to the nonlinear Dirac equation of cubic nonlinearity. This, in particular,…
As a commutative version of the supersymmetric nonlinear sigma model, Dirac-harmonic maps from Riemann surfaces were introduced fifteen years ago. They are critical points of an unbounded conformally invariant functional involving two…
Let $M$ be a $C^2$-smooth Riemannian manifold with boundary and $N$ a complete $C^2$-smooth Riemannian manifold. We show that each stationary $p$-harmonic mapping $u\colon M\to N$, whose image lies in a compact subset of $N$, is locally…
We study a new set of coupled field equations motivated by the non-linear supersymmetric sigma model of quantum field theory. These equations couple a map into a Riemannian manifold controlled by a harmonic map like action with a spinor…
We study the existence of harmonic maps and Dirac-harmonic maps from degenerating surfaces to non-positive curved manifold via the scheme of Sacks and Uhlenbeck. By choosing a suitable sequence of $\alpha$-(Dirac-)harmonic maps from a…
We prove a Liouville-type theorem for biharmonic maps from a complete Riemannian manifold of dimension \(n\) that has a lower bound on its Ricci curvature and positive injectivity radius into a Riemannian manifold whose sectional curvature…
In this paper we continue the investigation of the regularity of the so-called weak $\frac{n}{p}$-harmonic maps in the critical case. These are critical points of the following nonlocal energy \[ {\mathcal{L}}_s(u)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}| (…
We prove Liouville theorems for Dirac-harmonic maps from the Euclidean space $\R^n$, the hyperbolic space $\H^n$ and a Riemannian manifold $\mathfrak{S^n}$ ($n\geq 3$) with the Schwarzschild metric to any Riemannian manifold $N$.
We study Dirac-harmonic maps from degenerating spin surfaces with uniformly bounded energy and show the so-called generalized energy identity in the case that the domain converges to a spin surface with only Neveu-Schwarz type nodes. We…
In this paper we prove a compactness theorem for a sequence of harmonic maps which are defined on a converging sequence of Riemannian manifolds.
We introduce a functional that couples the nonlinear sigma model with a spinor field: $L=\int_M[|d\phi|^2+(\psi,\D\psi)]$. In two dimensions, it is conformally invariant. The critical points of this functional are called Dirac-harmonic…
We prove that if the minors of degree $k$ of a Sobolev map $\mathbb{R}^d \to \mathbb{R}^d$ are smooth then the map is smooth, when $k,d$ are not both even. We use this result to derive a simple, self-contained proof of the famous Liouville…
In this paper, we will study the partial regularity theorem for stationary harmonic maps from a Riemannian manifold into a Lorentzian manifold. For a weakly stationary harmonic map $(u,v)$ from a smooth bounded open domain…
$\alpha$-Dirac-harmonic maps are variations of Dirac-harmonic maps, analogous to $\alpha$-harmonic maps that were introduced by Sacks-Uhlenbeck to attack the existence problem for harmonic maps from surfaces. For $\alpha >1$, the latter are…
In this article, we investigate the regularity for certain elliptic systems without a $L^2$-antisymmetric structure. As applications, we prove some $\epsilon$-regularity theorems for weakly harmonic maps from the unit ball $B= B(m) \subset…
We consider triholomorphic maps from an almost hyper-Hermitian manifold $\mathcal{M}^{4m}$ into a hyperK\"ahler manifold $\mathcal{N}^{4n}$. This means that $u \in W^{1,2}$ satisfies a quaternionic del-bar equation. We work under the…
In this paper, we prove the boundary partial regularity for a class of coupled Dirac-harmonic maps satisfying a certain energy monotonicity inequality near the boundary.
