We initiate and develop the theory of complex harmonic maps to holomorphic Riemannian symmetric spaces, which we make use of to study complex analytic aspects of higher Teichm\"uller theory, with a focus on rank $2$ Hitchin components.…
We give a sufficient criterion, which we call stability, for a coarse Lipschitz map $f$ from a complete manifold $X$ with Ricci curvature bounded below to a proper Hadamard space $Y$ to be within bounded distance of a harmonic map. We prove…
In this paper, we study the Chern-Hamilton energy functional on compact cosymplectic manifolds, fully classifying in dimension 3 those manifolds admitting a critical compatible metric for this functional. This is the case if and only if…
In the present paper, we study harmonic mappings of complete Riemannian manifolds, as well as minimal and stable minimal submanifolds of complete Riemannian manifolds. We examine classical theorems in the theory of these manifolds from the…
We show that the mappings $u\in \dot{W}^{s,p}(\mathbb{R}^n,\mathcal{N})$ into manifolds $\mathcal{N}$ of a sufficiently simple topology that minimize the energy $$\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}\frac{|u(x)-u(y)|^p}{|x-y|^{n+sp}}…
We establish a duality between harmonic maps from Riemann surfaces to hyperbolic 3-space $\mathbb{H}^3$ and harmonic maps from Riemann surfaces to de Sitter three-space $\operatorname{dS}_3$, best viewed as a generalized Gauss map. On the…
Harmonicity of holomorphic maps between various subclasses of almost contact metric manifolds is discussed. Consequently, some new results are obtained. Also some known results are recovered, some of them are generalized and some of them…
We study harmonic morphisms of graphs as a natural discrete analogue of holomorphic maps between Riemann surfaces. We formulate a graph-theoretic analogue of the classical Riemann-Hurwitz formula, study the functorial maps on Jacobians and…
In this paper we consider critical points of the following nonlocal energy {equation} {\cal{L}}_n(u)=\int_{\R^n}| ({-\Delta})^{n/4} u(x)|^2 dx\,, {equation} where $u\colon H^{n/2}(\R^n)\to{\cal{N}}\,$ ${\cal{N}}\subset\R^m$ is a compact $k$…
In 1981, Sacks and Uhlenbeck introduced their famous $\alpha$-energy as a way to approximate the Dirichlet energy and produce harmonic maps from surfaces into Riemannian manifolds. However, the second and third authors together with…
Let $\Sigma$ be a closed surface of genus least two and $\rho \colon \pi_1(\Sigma) \to G$ a Hitchin representation into $G=\text{PSL}(n,\mathbb{R})$, $\text{PSp}(2n,\mathbb{R})$, $\text{PSO}(n,n+1)$ or $\text{G}_2$. We consider the energy…
Given an (anisotropic) Hermitian space $H$, the collection $P(H)$ of at most one-dimensional subspaces of $H$, equipped with the orthogonal relation $\perp$ and the zero linear subspace $\{0\}$, is a linear orthoset and up to…
We find geometric conditions on a Hermitian-Weyl manifold under which the complex structure is a pseudo-harmonic map in the sense of G. Kokarev \cite{K09} from the manifold into its twistor space. This is done under the assumption that the…
This is the first part of a two-paper series that establishes the uniqueness and regularity of a threshold energy wave map that does not scatter in both time directions. Consider the two-sphere valued equivariant energy critical wave maps…
We introduce a class of maps from an affine flat into a Riemannian manifold that solve an elliptic system defined by the natural second order elliptic operator of the affine structure and the nonlinear Riemann geometry of the target. These…
This article studies the smoothness of conformal mappings between two Riemannian manifolds whose metric tensors have limited regularity. We show that any bi-Lipschitz conformal mapping or $1$-quasiregular mapping between two manifolds with…
The identity map of an Einstein manifold is a critical point of both the classical energy functional and the conformal-bienergy functional. In this paper, we investigate the conformal-biharmonic stability of the identity map of compact…
We establish small energy H\"{o}lder bounds for minimizers $u_\varepsilon$ of \[E_\varepsilon (u):=\int_\Omega W(\nabla u)+ \frac{1}{\varepsilon^2} \int_\Omega f(u),\] where $W$ is a positive definite quadratic form and the potential $f$…
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…
We show that limits of sequences of smooth maps between compact Riemannian manifolds with equi-integrable $W^{1, p}$-Sobolev energy can always be strongly approximated by smooth maps, giving a counterpart of Hang's density result in $W^{1,…
