Consider the energy-critical focusing wave equation in odd space dimension $N\geq 3$. The equation has a nonzero radial stationary solution $W$, which is unique up to scaling and sign change. In this paper we prove that any radial, bounded…

In this note, we generalize biharmonic equation for rotationally symmetric maps ([4], [16], [10]) to equivariant maps between model spaces and use it to give a complete classification of rotationally symmetric conformal biharmonic maps from…
We consider the wave maps problem with domain $\mathbb{R}^{2+1}$ and target $\mathbb{S}^{2}$ in the 1-equivariant, topological degree one setting. In this setting, we recall that the soliton is a harmonic map from $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ to…
A particular Riemannian metric which originally has been obtained for a well-known coordinate system in the Euclidean 3-space, is shown to specify, in fact, a manifold with boundary. There are two ways to make the manifold complete. One is…

Let $M$ be a symplectic manifold and $G$ a connected, compact Lie group acting on $M$ in a Hamiltonian way. In this paper, we study the equivariant cohomology of $M$ represented by basic differential forms, and relate it to the cohomology…
A detailed study is made of the noncommutative geometry of $R^3_q$, the quantum space covariant under the quantum group $SO_q(3)$. For each of its two $SO_q(3)$-covariant differential calculi we find its metric, the corresponding frame and…
