We analyse finite-time singularities of the Teichm\"uller harmonic map flow -- a natural gradient flow of the harmonic map energy -- and find a canonical way of flowing beyond them in order to construct global solutions in full generality.…
We establish quantitative stability results for classical distortion minimization problems in the theory of quasiconformal mappings. We consider the mean distortion functional and prove sharp stability estimates for the minimization…
In the first part of this paper we prove that the flow associated to a dispersive Burgers equation with a non local term of the form $|D|^{\alpha-1} \partial_x u$, $\alpha \in [1,+\infty[$ is Lipschitz from bounded sets of…
We study the mean curvature flow of smooth $n$-dimensional compact submanifolds with quadratic pinching in a Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{N}^{n+m}$. Our main focus is on the case of high codimension, $m\geq 2$. We establish a codimension…
We prove a regularity theorem for harmonic maps into Teichm\"uller space. More specifically, if $u$ is a harmonic map from a Riemannian domain to the metric completion of Teichm\"uller space with respect to the Weil-Petersson metric, and…
We study compact locally homogeneous plane waves. Such a manifold is a quotient of a homogeneous plane wave $X$ by a discrete subgroup of its isometry group. This quotient is called standard if the discrete subgroup is contained in a…
We prove differential Harnack inequalities for flows of strictly convex hypersurfaces by powers $p$, $0<p<1$, of the mean curvature in Einstein manifolds with a positive lower bound on the sectional curvature. We assume that this lower…
We extend the recent result of T.Tao to wave maps defined from the Minkowski space of dimension >4 to a target Riemannian manifold which possesses a ``bounded parallelizable'' structure. This is the case of Lie groups, homogeneous spaces as…
The aim of this paper is to give a new proof that any very weak $s$-harmonic function $u$ in the unit ball $B$ is smooth. As a first step, we improve the local summability properties of $u$. Then, we exploit a suitable version of the…
We study the blow-up dynamics for the energy-critical 1-corotational wave maps problem with 2-sphere target. In arXiv:0911.0692, Rapha\"el and Rodnianski exhibited a stable finite time blow-up dynamics arising from smooth initial data. In…
Given a $C^1$ planes distribution $P_T$ on all ${\mathbb R}^m$ we consider {\em horizontal $\alpha$-harmonic maps}, $\alpha\ge 1/2$, with respect to such a distribution. These are maps $u\in H^{\alpha}({{\mathbb R}}^k,{{\mathbb R}}^m)$…
We study the quantitative stability of the mapping that to a measure associates its pushforward measure by a fixed (non-smooth) optimal transport map. We exhibit a tight H\"older-behavior for this operation under minimal assumptions. Our…
We prove that manifold constrained $p(x)$-harmonic maps are $C^{1,\beta}$-regular outside a set of zero $n$-dimensional Lebesgue's measure, for some $\beta \in (0,1)$. We also provide an estimate from above of the Hausdorff dimension of the…
We prove families of uniform $(L^r,L^s)$ resolvent estimates for simply connected manifolds of constant curvature (negative or positive) that imply the earlier ones for Euclidean space of Kenig, Ruiz and the second author \cite{KRS}. In the…
In the previous papers in this series, the global regularity conjecture for wave maps from two-dimensional Minkowski space $\R^{1+2}$ to hyperbolic space $\H^m$ was reduced to the problem of constructing a minimal-energy blowup solution…
We extend the Levi-Civita (L-C) and Kustaanheimo-Stiefel (K-S) regularization methods that maps the classical system where a particle moves under the combined influence of $\frac{1}{r}$ and $r^2$ potentials to a harmonic oscillator with…
We announce a generalization of Zimmer's cocycle superrigidity theorem proven using harmonic map techniques. This allows us to generalize many results concerning higher rank lattices to all lattices in semisimple groups with property $(T)$.…
In this paper, we study the regularity of the solutions of Maxwell's equations in a bounded domain. We consider several different types of low regularity assumptions to the coefficients which are all less than Lipschitz. We first develop a…
This paper develops a systematic and geometric theory of optimal quantization on the unit sphere $\mathbb S^2$, focusing on finite uniform probability distributions supported on the spherical surface - rather than on lower-dimensional…
In a closed, oriented ambient manifold $(M^n,g)$ we consider the problem of finding $\mathbb{S}^1$-valued harmonic maps with prescribed singular set. We show that the boundary of any oriented $(n-1)$-submanifold can be realised as the…
