We show the existence of non-trivial self-expanding harmonic map flows starting from non-energy-minimizing 0-homogeneous maps to a regular ball or a closed hemisphere. In particular, given a non-minimizing but stationary 0-homogeneous…

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…

We apply the topological quantization method to some gravitational fields which can be represented as generalized harmonic maps. This representation extends the well-known concept of harmonic maps and allows us to describe some solutions to…

In this paper we continue the analysis of equivariant wave maps from 2-dimensional hyperbolic space into surfaces of revolution that was initiated in [13, 14]. When the target is the hyperbolic plane we proved in [13] the existence and…

We consider one-dimensional parabolic free boundary value problem with a nonlocal (integro-differential) condition on the free boundary. Results on $C^m$-regularity of the free boundary are obtained. In particular, a necessary and…

Adapting \cite{strz3}, we define generalized $p$-harmonic maps into Riemannian homogeneous targets, a notion of solutions not belonging to the energy space. Restricting our attention to the subcritical range $p$ greater than the domain…

The following result is proved: {\bf Theorem.} Let $D\subset \R^3$ be a bounded domain homeomorphic to a ball, $|D|$ be its volume, $|S|$ be the surface area of its smooth boundary $S$, $D\subset B_R:=\{x:|x|\leq R\}$, and $H_R$ is the set…

In this paper we consider finite energy, \ell-equivariant wave maps from 1+3-dimensional Minkowski space exterior to the unit ball at the origin into the 3-sphere. We impose a Dirichlet boundary condition at r=1, which in this context means…

In this work we are going to establish H\"older continuity of harmonic maps from an open set $\Omega$ in an ${\rm RCD}(K,N)$ space valued into a ${\rm CAT}(\kappa)$ space, with the constraint that the image of $\Omega$ via the map is…

We generalize the notion of calibrated submanifolds to smooth maps and show that the several examples of smooth maps appearing in the differential geometry become the examples of our situation. Moreover, we apply these notion to give the…

In this note, we study non-uniqueness for minimizing harmonic maps from $B^3$ to $\mathbb{S}^2$. We show that every boundary map can be modified to a boundary map that admits multiple minimizers of the Dirichlet energy by a small…

We start the investigation of free boundary variational models featuring varying singularities. The theory depends strongly on the nature of the singular power $\gamma(x)$ and how it changes. Under a mild continuity assumption on…

We prove Hoelder continuity for n/2-harmonic maps from subsets of Rn into a sphere. This extends a recent one-dimensional result by F. Da Lio and T. Riviere to arbitrary dimensions. The proof relies on compensation effects which we quantify…
