The aim of this note is to show that lamplighter graphs where the space graph is infinite and at most two-ended and the lamp graph is at most two-ended do not admit harmonic functions with gradients in $\ell^p$ (\ie finite $p$-energy) for…

A classical result of A.D. Alexandrov states that a connected compact smooth $n-$dimensional manifold without boundary, embedded in $\Bbb R^{n+1}$, and such that its mean curvature is constant, is a sphere. Here we study the problem of…

We prove that the standard half-harmonic map $U:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{S}^1$ defined by \begin{equation*} x\to \begin{pmatrix} \frac{x^2-1}{x^2+1} \frac{-2x}{x^2+1} \end{pmatrix} \end{equation*} is nondegenerate in the sense that all bounded…

In this paper, we establish the uniqueness of heat flow of harmonic maps into (N, h) that have sufficiently small renormalized energies, provided that N is either a unit sphere $S^{k-1}$ or a compact Riemannian homogeneous manifold without…

In this manuscript, we investigate the exponentially harmonic equation on noncompact forward complete Finsler metric measure spaces. We demonstrate that this Finslerian equation represents a critical point of an exponential energy…

Let H be the space of quaternions, with its standard hypercomplex structure. Let R(D) be the module of regular functions on D. For every unitary vector p in S^2, R(D) contains the space of holomorphic functions w.r.t. the complex structure…

The purpose of this note is to study the connectedness at infinity of manifold by using the theory of $p$-harmonic functions. We show that if the first eigenvalue $\lambda_{1,p}$ for the $p$-Laplacian achievies its maximal value on a…

We investigate a fractional notion of gradient and divergence operator. We generalize the div-curl estimate by Coifman-Lions-Meyer-Semmes to fractional div-curl quantities, obtaining, in particular, a nonlocal version of Wente's lemma. We…

Our main result in this paper is the following: Given $H^m, H^n$ hyperbolic spaces of dimensional $m$ and $n$ corresponding, and given a Holder function $f=(s^1,...,f^{n-1}):\partial H^m\to \partial H^n$ between geometric boundaries of…

Motived by the heat flow and bubble analysis of biharmonic mappings, we study further regularity issues of the fourth order Lamm-Riviere system $$\Delta^{2}u=\Delta(V\cdot\nabla u)+{\rm div}(w\nabla u)+(\nabla\omega+F)\cdot\nabla u+f$$ in…

The identification between the complex plane and the Riemann sphere preserves holomorphic and harmonic functions and is a classical tool. In this paper we consider a similar mapping from an unbounded metric space $X$ to a bounded space and…

The celebrated problem of a non-homogeneous sphere rolling over a horizontal plane was proved to be integrable and was reduced to quadratures by Chaplygin. Applying the formalism of variational integrators (discrete Lagrangian systems) with…

We introduce non-linear Dirac operators in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ associated to the $p$-harmonic equation and we extend to other contexts including spin manifolds and the sphere.

We construct a resonant normal form for an area-preserving map near a generic resonant elliptic fixed point. The normal form is obtained by a simplification of a formal interpolating Hamiltonian. The resonant normal form is unique and…

We show that the mappings $u\in \dot{W}^{s,p}(\mathbb{R}^n,\mathcal{N})$ into manifolds $\mathcal{N}$ of a sufficiently simple topology that minimize the energy $$\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}\frac{|u(x)-u(y)|^p}{|x-y|^{n+sp}}…

We obtain nontrivial solutions for two types of critical $p$-Laplacian problems with asymmetric nonlinearities in a smooth bounded domain in ${\mathbb R}^N,\, N \ge 2$. For $p < N$, we consider an asymmetric problem involving the critical…

We establish an optimal $L^p$-regularity theory for solutions to fourth order elliptic systems with antisymmetric potentials in all supercritical dimensions $n\ge 5$: $$ \Delta^2 u=\Delta(D\cdot\nabla u)+div(E\cdot\nabla…

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…

Inspired by work of Colding-Minicozzi on mean curvature flow, Zhang introduced a notion of entropy stability for harmonic map flow. We build further upon this work in several directions. First we prove the equivalence of entropy stability…
