Polyharmonic, or $r$-harmonic, maps are a natural generalization of harmonic maps whose study was proposed by Eells-Lemaire in 1983. The main aim of this paper is to construct new examples of proper $r$-harmonic immersions into spheres. In…
The first part of this paper explains what super-integrability is and how it differs in the classical and quantum cases. This is illustrated with an elementary example of the resonant harmonic oscillator. For Hamiltonians in "natural form",…
In this paper, we first obtain an $L^q$ gradient estimate for $p$-harmonic maps, by assuming the target manifold supporting a certain function, whose gradient and Hessian satisfy some analysis conditions. From this $L^q$ gradient estimate,…
We show that wave maps from Minkowski space $R^{1+n}$ to a sphere are globally smooth if the initial data is smooth and has small norm in the critical Sobolev space $\dot H^{n/2}$ in the high dimensional case $n \geq 5$. A major difficulty,…
We study biharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds with finite energy and finite bi-energy. We show that if the domain is complete and the target of non-positive curvature, then such a map is harmonic. We then give applications to…
In this article we consider large energy wave maps in dimension 2+1, as in the resolution of the threshold conjecture by Sterbenz and Tataru, but more specifically into the unit Euclidean sphere, and study further the dynamics of the…
We classify all harmonic maps with finite uniton number from a Riemann surface into an arbitrary compact simple Lie group $G$, whether $G$ has trivial centre or not, in terms of certain pieces of the Bruhat decomposition of the group…
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…
Based on a quantitative version of the inverse function theorem and an appropriate saddle-point formulation we derive a quasi-optimal error estimate for the finite element approximation of harmonic maps into spheres with a nodal…
We describe work on solutions of certain non-divergence type and therefore non-variational elliptic and parabolic systems on manifolds. These systems include Hermitian and affine harmonics which should become useful tools for studying…
We investigate the focusing inhomogeneous nonlinear biharmonic Schr\"odinger equation \[ i\partial_t u + \Delta^2 u - |x|^{-b}|u|^p u = 0 \quad \text{on } \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^N, \] in the energy-critical regime, $p = \frac{8 -…
A stochastic differential equation with coefficients defined in a scale of Hilbert spaces is considered. The existence, uniqueness and path-continuity of infinite-time solutions is proved by an extension of the Ovsyannikov method. This…
We prove that not every harmonic map from $S^{2}$ to $S^{2}$ can arise as a limit of Ginzburg--Landau critical points. More precisely, we show that the only degree-one harmonic maps that can be approximated in this way are rotations. This…
An existence result is shown for the asymptotic Dirichlet problem for harmonic maps from the product of the hyperbolic planes to the hyperbolic space, where the Dirichlet data is given on the distinguished boundary (the product of the…
This paper concerns two-dimensional Filippov systems --- ordinary differential equations that are discontinuous on one-dimensional switching manifolds. In the situation that a stable focus transitions to an unstable focus by colliding with…
The Grassmannian model represents harmonic maps from Riemann surfaces by families of shift-invariant subspaces of a Hilbert space. We impose a natural symmetry condition on the shift-invariant subspaces that corresponds to considering an…

We obtain a unified theory of discrete minimal surfaces based on discrete holomorphic quadratic differentials via a Weierstrass representation. Our discrete holomorphic quadratic differential are invariant under M\"{o}bius transformations.…

We develop regularity theory for critical points of variational integrals defined on Hessian spaces of functions on open, bounded subdomains of $\mathbb{R}^n$, under compactly supported variations. The critical point solves a fourth order…
