Consider a Yang-Mills connection over a Riemann manifold $M=M^n$, $n\ge 3$, where $M$ may be compact or complete. Then its energy must be bounded from below by some positive constant, if $M$ satisfies certain conditions, unless the…

Let $u: (M, g)\to (N, h)$ be a map between Riemannian manifolds $(M, g)$ and $(N, h)$. The $p$-bienergy of $u$ is defined by $E_p(u)=\int_M|\tau(u)|^pd\nu_g$, where $\tau(u)$ is the tension field of $u$ and $p>1$. Critical points of…

In this article, we show that sequences of $(n+\alpha)$-harmonic maps with a free boundary in $\mathbb S^{d-1}$, where $\alpha$ is a parameter tending to zero, converge to a bubble tree. For such sequences, we prove in detail that the…

We build up an asymptotic observability identity for the heat equation in the whole space. It says that one can approximately recover a solution, through observing it over some countable lattice points in the space and at one time. This…

We first partially extend a theorem of Topping, on the relation between mean curvature and intrinsic diameter, from immersed submanifolds of $\mathbb{R} ^{n} $ to almost everywhere immersed, closed submanifolds of a compact Riemannian…

We study representations of lattices of PU(m,1) into PU(n,1). We show that if a representation is reductive and if m is at least 2, then there exists a finite energy harmonic equivariant map from complex hyperbolic m-space to complex…

Given a positive integer $p$, we consider $W^{1,p}$-maps from a Euclidean domain of dimension $p+1$ into a closed Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{N}$. The target manifold is required to satisfy suitable topological conditions; in particular,…

For a negatively curved manifold $M$ and a continuous map $\psi:\Sigma\to M$ from a closed surface $\Sigma$, we study complex submanifolds of Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{S}\subset\mathcal{T}(\Sigma)$ such that the harmonic maps…

In this paper we consider sequences of $p$-harmonic maps, $p>2$, from a closed Riemann surface $\Sigma$ into the $n$-dimensional sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$ with uniform bounded energy. These are critical points of the energy $E_p(u)…

In this paper we study an energy of maps between almost Hermitian manifolds for which pseudo-holomorphic maps are global minimizers. We derive its Euler-Lagrange equation, the $\bar{\partial}$-harmonic map equation, and show that it…

Identifiability means that iterates generated by optimization algorithms are eventually confined to an identifiable set. This property is computationally useful because minimizing a nonsmooth function near a critical point reduces to…

In this article, we prove energy quantization for approximate (intrinsic and extrinsic) biharmonic maps into spheres where the approximate map is in $L \log L$. Moreover, we demonstrate that if the $L\log L$ norm of the approximate maps…

In this paper, we firstly extend Theorem 5.1.1 in \cite {Helein} due to H\'elein to a rescaled branched conformal immersed sequence(c.f. Theorem 1.5). By virtue of this local convergence theorem, we study the blowup behavior of a sequence…

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 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…

We consider hypothetical solutions of 3D Euler which blow up in finite time in a self-similar fashion. We prove that if the initial data has finite kinetic energy, then the similarity exponent $\gamma$ which governs the rate of zooming in…

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…

In the present work we establish an energy quantization (or energy identity) result for solutions to scaling invariant variational problems in dimension 4 which includes biharmonic maps (extrinsic and intrinsic). To that aim we first…

An energy for the homogeneous cosmological models is presented. More specifically, using an appropriate natural prescription, we find the energy within any region with any gravitational source for a large class of gravity theories--namely…

In this paper, we study the gluing construction of the extended harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds. Harmonic maps are critical points of the energy functional. We construct the gluing map of the extended harmonic maps from Riemann…
