There is a very natural map from the configuration space of n distinct points in Euclidean 3-space into the flag manifold U(n)/U(1)^n, which is compatible with the action of the symmetric group. The map is well-defined for all…

This paper establish the local (or global, resp.) well-posedness of the heat flow of biharmonic maps from $R^n$ to a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary with small local BMO (or BMO, resp.) norms.

Let $\pi:\mc{X}\to \mc{T}$ be Teichm\"uller curve over Teichm\"uller space $\mc{T}$, such that the fiber $\mc{X}_z=\pi^{-1}(z)$ is exactly the Riemann surface given by the complex structure $z\in \mc{T}$. For a fixed Riemannian manifold $M$…

We consider the energy-critical half-wave maps equation $$\partial_t \mathbf{u} + \mathbf{u} \wedge |\nabla| \mathbf{u} = 0$$ for $\mathbf{u} : [0,T) \times \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{S}^2$. We give a complete classification of all traveling…

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…

Let $\rho_\Sigma=h(|z|^2)$ be a metric in a Riemann surface $\Sigma$, where $h$ is a positive real function. Let $\mathcal H_{r_1}=\{w=f(z)\}$ be the family of univalent $\rho_\Sigma$ harmonic mapping of the Euclidean annulus…

We determine when a quasi-isometry between discrete spaces is at bounded distance from a bilipschitz map. From this we prove a geometric version of the Von Neumann conjecture on amenability. We also get some examples in geometric groups…

We give a quantitative characterization of traces on the boundary of Sobolev maps in $\dot{W}^{1,p}(\mathcal M, \mathcal N)$, where $\mathcal{M}$ and $\mathcal{N}$ are compact Riemannian manifolds, $\partial \mathcal{M} \neq \emptyset$: the…

We consider a natural Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom and Hamiltonian $H=\|p\|^2/2+V(q)$. The configuration space $M$ is a closed surface (for noncompact $M$ certain conditions at infinity are required). It is well known that…

Let L be a restricted Lie algebra over a field of characteristic p > 2 and denote by u(L) its restricted enveloping algebra. We determine the conditions under which the set of symmetric elements of u(L) with respect to the principal…

We generalize the no-neck result of Qing-Tian \cite{QT} to show that there is no neck during blowing up for the $n$-harmonic flow as $t\to\infty$. As an application of the no-neck result, we settle a conjecture of Hungerb\"uhler \cite…

$N$-body non efimovian bound or quasi-bound states for particles with short range interactions are considered in arbitrary dimensions. The different resonance regimes near the threshold are depicted by using a generalization of the…

We demonstrate that the presence of entanglement in macroscopic bodies (e.g. solids) in thermodynamical equilibrium could be revealed by measuring heat-capacity. The idea is that if the system were in a separable state, then for certain…

We consider the focusing energy critical NLS with inverse square potential in dimension $d= 3, 4, 5$ with the details given in $d=3$ and remarks on results in other dimensions. Solutions on the energy surface of the ground state are…

The surface is known to intercept energy from bombarding particles. This energy then spreads over the surface. Before now, it has always been said that the distribution of this energy landing on the surface is always Gaussian. However, in…

We propose a model for nonlinearly elastic membranes undergoing finite deformations while confined to a regular frictionless surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$. This is a physically correct model of the analogy sometimes given to motivate harmonic…
