The landslide flow, introduced in [5], is a smoother analog of the earthquake flow on Teichm\"uller space which shares some of its key properties. We show here that further properties of earthquakes apply to landslides. The landslide flow…

In this paper, we study an $\alpha$-flow for the Sack-Uhlenbeck functional on Riemannian surfaces and prove that the limiting map by the $\alpha$-flows is a weak solution to the harmonic map flow. By an application of the $\alpha$-flow, we…

In this paper we study upper and lower bounds of the index and the nullity for sequences of harmonic maps with uniformly bounded Dirichlet energy from a two-dimensional Riemann surface into a compact target manifold. The main difficulty…
We analyse the asymptotic behaviour of solutions of the Teichm\"uller harmonic map flow from cylinders, and more generally of `almost minimal cylinders', in situations where the maps satisfy a Plateau-boundary condition for which the…
In this paper we give a geometric interpretation of the renormalization algorithm and of the continued fraction map that we introduced in arxiv:0905.0871 to give a characterization of symbolic sequences for linear flows in the regular…
R. Thom's gradient conjecture states that if a gradient flow of an analytic function converges to a limit, it does so along a unique limiting direction. In this paper, we extend and settle this conjecture in the context of infinite…
Critical points of approximations of the Dirichlet energy \`{a} la Sacks-Uhlenbeck are known to converge to harmonic maps in a suitable sense. However, we show that not every harmonic map can be approximated by critical points of such…
We introduce a function model for the Teichm\"uller space of a closed hyperbolic Riemann surface. Then we introduce a new metric by using the maximum norm on the function space on the Teichm\"uller space. We prove that the identity map from…
