We study the the energy critical non-linear Ginzburg-Landau equation $\partial_{t} u =z\Delta u+z|u|^{\frac{4}{D-2}} u$ with $\Re z >0$ in dimension $D\geq 3$. We prove that every radial solution with finite energy norm resolves into a…
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 finite energy solutions to quasilinear elliptic equations of the type $$ -\Delta_pu=\sigma \, u^q \quad \text{in } \mathbb{R}^n,$$ where $\Delta_p$ is the $p$-Laplacian, $p>1$, and $\sigma$ is a nonnegative function (or measure) on…
We study the minimax problem $\min_{x\in M} \max_y f_r(x,y):=f(x,y)-h(y)$, where $M$ is a compact submanifold, $f$ is continuously differentiable in $(x, y)$, $h$ is a closed, weakly-convex (possibly non-smooth) function and we assume that…
In this paper, using the theory developed in [8], we obtain some results of a totally new type about a class of non-local problems. Here is a sample: Let $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^n$ be a smooth bounded domain, with $n\geq 4$, let $a, b,…
We prove convergence of the gradient flow of the Ginzburg-Landau energy functional on a Riemann surface in the self-dual Bogomolny case, in Coulomb gauge. The proof is direct and makes use of the associated nonlinear first order…
Inspired by Lin-Pan-Wang (Comm. Pure Appl. Math., 65(6): 833-888, 2012), we continue to study the corresponding time-independent case of the Keller-Rubinstein-Sternberg problem. To be precise, we explore the asymptotic behavior of…
