In this work, we study multiplicity-free induced representations of finite groups. We analyze in great detail the structure of the Hecke algebra corresponding to the commutant of an induced representation and then specialize to the…
Both bi-harmonic map and $f$-harmonic map have nice physical motivation and applications. In this paper, by combination of these two harmonic maps, we introduce and study $f$-bi-harmonic maps as the critical points of the $f$-bi-energy…
Wave maps (or Lorentzian-harmonic maps) from a $1+1$-dimensional Lorentz space into the $2$-sphere are associated to constant negative Gaussian curvature surfaces in Euclidean 3-space via the Gauss map, which is harmonic with respect to the…
We compute a Simons' type formula for the stress-energy tensor of biharmonic maps from surfaces. Specializing to Riemannian immersions, we prove several rigidity results for biharmonic CMC surfaces, putting in evidence the influence of the…
The present article studies the class of Einstein-Hermitian harmonic maps of constant Kaehler angle from the projective line into quadrics. We provide a description of their moduli spaces up to image, and gauge-equivalence using the…
We construct group-invariant CR maps from the unit sphere in $\mathbb{C}^3$ and provide sharp bounds for the gap termination in this setting.
In this manuscript we study rotationally $p$-harmonic maps between spheres. We prove that for $p\in\mathbb{N}$ given, there exist infinitely many $p$-harmonic self-maps of $\mathbb{S}^m$ for each $m\in\mathbb{N}$ with $p<m< 2+p+2\sqrt{p}$.…
Biharmonic maps between surfaces are studied in this paper. We compute the bitension field of a map between surfaces with conformal metrics in complex coordinates. As applications, we show that a linear map from Euclidean plane into…
We expose (without proofs) a unified computational approach to integrable structures (including recursion, Hamiltonian, and symplectic operators) based on geometrical theory of partial differential equations. We adopt a coordinate based…
For a Riemannian polyhedra, we study the geometry of the unit ball for the unidimensional stable norm (stable ball). In the case of a unidimensional Riemannian polyhedra (graph), we show that the stable ball is a polytope whose vertices are…
A 2p-times continuously differentiable complex valued function $f = u + iv$ in a simply connected domain is polyharmonic (or p-harmonic) if it satisfies the polyharmonic equation $\Delta^pF = 0$ . Every polyharmonic mapping f can be written…
We apply a version of the Chas-Sullivan-Cohen-Jones product on the higher loop homology of a manifold in order to compute the homology of the spaces of continuous and holomorphic maps of the Riemann sphere into a complex projective space.…
The Neumann system on the 2-dimensional sphere is used as a tool to convey some ideas on the bi-Hamiltonian point of view on separation of variables. It is shown that, from this standpoint, its separation coordinates and its integrals of…
We introduce a class of maps from an affine flat into a Riemannian manifold that solve an elliptic system defined by the natural second order elliptic operator of the affine structure and the nonlinear Riemann geometry of the target. These…
This is a survey of results on the following problem. Consider a simply connected Riemann surface spread over the Riemann sphere. How are the properties of the uniformizing function of this surface related to the geometric properties of the…
A meromorphic quadratic differential on a compact Riemann surface defines a complex projective structure away from the poles via the Schwarzian equation. In this article we first prove the analogue of Thurston's Grafting Theorem for the…
We define and study complex structures and generalizations on spaces consisting of geodesics or harmonic maps that are compatible with the symmetries of these spaces. The main results are about existence and uniqueness of such structures.
We study $ { \mathrm{ SU } ( p + 1 ) \times \mathrm{ SU } ( n - p ) } $-equivariant maps between complex projective spaces. For every $ { n, p \in \mathbb{ N } } $ with $ { 0 \leq p < n } $, we construct two explicit families of uncountable…
We prove a quantification result for harmonic maps with free boundary from arbitrary Riemannian surfaces into the unit ball of ${\mathbb R}^{n+1}$ with bounded energy. This generalizes results obtained by Da Lio on the disc.
In this paper we introduce the new notion of complex isoparametric functions on Riemannian manifolds. These are then employed to devise a general method for constructing proper $p$-harmonic functions. We then apply this to construct the…
