We introduce (integro-differential) harmonic maps into spheres, which are defined as critical points of the Besov-Slobodeckij energy $\int\limits_{\Omega}\int\limits_{\Omega} \frac{|v(x)-v(y)|^{p_s}}{|x-y|^{n+sp_s}}\ dx\ dy$. For $p_s = 2$…

In this note we present a short alternative proof of an estimate obtained by A.B.-Mantel, C.B. Muratov and T.M. Simon in [3] regarding the rigidity of degree {$\pm 1$} conformal maps of $\mathbb{S}^2$, i.e. its M\"obius transformations.

We study the topology of the space of harmonic maps from $S^2$ to \CP 2$. We prove that the subspaces consisting of maps of a fixed degree and energy are path connected. By a result of Guest and Ohnita it follows that the same is true for…

Let $V$ be a $C^1$-vector field on an $n$-dimensional complete Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$. We prove a Liouville theorem for $V$-harmonic maps satisfying various growth conditions from complete Riemannian manifolds with non-negative $(m,…
