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 obtain a complete solution to the problem of classifying all two-dimensional ideal fluid flows with harmonic Lagrangian labelling maps; thus, we explicitly provide all solutions, with the specified structural property, to the…
Energy minimizing harmonic maps between manifolds are known to be smooth outside a rectifiable set of codimension $3$, called the singular set. The possibility that this set is not a manifold, but has arbitrarily many small gaps in it, is…
In this paper, we shall prove that a harmonic map from $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ ($n\geq2$) to any Kahler manifold must be holomorphic under an assumption of energy density. It can be considered as a complex analogue of the Liouville type theorem…
The study of singular perturbations of the Dirichlet energy is at the core of the phenomenological-description paradigm in soft condensed matter. Being able to pass to the limit plays a crucial role in the understanding of the…
Pluriharmonic maps form an important class of harmonic maps which includes holomorphic maps. We study their morphisms, in particular the inter-relationships between $(1,1)$-geodesic, pluriharmonic and $\pm$holomorphic maps. Then we…
On a Riemannian surface, the energy of a map into a Riemannian manifold is a conformal invariant functional, and its critical points are the harmonic maps. Our main result is a generalization of this theorem when the starting manifold is…
We study a version of Calder\'on's problem for harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds. By using the higher linearization method, we first show that the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map determines the metric on the domain up to a natural gauge…
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…
Critical points of approximations of the Dirichlet energy \`{a} la Sacks-Uhlenbeck are known to converge to harmonic maps in a suitable sense. However, we show that not every harmonic map can be approximated by critical points of such…
We extend Siu's and Sampson's celebrated rigidity results to non-compact domains. More precisely, let $M$ be a smooth quasi-projective variety with universal cover $\tilde M$ and let $\tilde X$ be a symmetric space of non-compact type, a…
In this paper, we investigate subelliptic harmonic maps with potential from noncompact complete sub-Riemannian manifolds corresponding to totally geodesic Riemannian foliations. Under some suitable conditions, we give the gradient estimates…
We prove a sharp criterion on the decay of the tension of almost harmonic maps from degenerating surfaces that ensures that such maps subconverge to a limiting object that is made up entirely of harmonic maps.
In this paper, we consider critical points of the horizontal energy $E_{\HH}(f)$ for a smooth map $f$ between two Riemannian foliations. These critical points are referred to as horizontally harmonic maps. In particular, if the maps are…
We study locally harmonic maps between a Riemann surface or Lorentz surface $M$ and a Riemann surface or Lorentz surface $N$. {All four cases are studied in a unified way}. All four cases are written using a unified formalism. Therefore…
We apply our abstract gradient inequalities developed by the authors in arXiv:1510.03817 to prove Lojasiewicz--Simon gradient inequalities for the harmonic map energy function using Sobolev spaces which impose minimal regularity…
This report attempts a clean presentation of the theory of harmonic maps from complex and K\"ahler manifolds to Riemannian manifolds. After reviewing the theory of harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds initiated by Eells--Sampson and…
Pseudo horizontally weakly conformal maps extend both holomorphic and (semi)conformal maps into an almost Hermitian manifold. We find in this larger class critical points for the (generalized) Faddeev-Hopf energy. Their stability is also…
We study the harmonic map equations for maps of a Riemann surface into a Riemannian symmetric space of compact type from the point of view of soliton theory. There is a well-known dressing action of a loop group on the space of harmonic…
The goal of this paper is to discuss some of the results in [31] and [32] and expand upon the work there by proving a global weak existence result as well as a first bubbling analysis in finite time. In addition, an alternative local…
