For domains that are easily represented by structured meshes, robust geometric multigrid solvers can quickly provide the numerical solution to many discretized elliptic PDEs. However, for complicated domains with unstructured meshes,…

We prove that a generic area-preserving diffeomorphism of a compact surface with non-empty boundary has an equidistributed set of periodic orbits. This implies that such a diffeomorphism has a dense set of periodic points, although we also…

We construct generalised diffeomorphisms for E$_9$ exceptional field theory. The transformations, which like in the E$_8$ case contain constrained local transformations, close when acting on fields. This is the first example of a…

Let $(\Sigma,p)$ be a pointed Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 1$. For any integer $k\geq 1$, we parametrize the space of meromorphic quadratic differentials on $\Sigma$ with a pole of order $(k+2)$ at $p$, having a connected critical graph…

We propose a new notion called \emph{infinity-harmonic maps}between Riemannain manifolds. These are natural generalizations of the well known notion of infinity harmonic functions and are also the limiting case of $p$% -harmonic maps as…

We consider the nonlinear Sturm-Liouville differential operator $F(u) = -u'' + f(u)$ for $u \in H^2_D([0, \pi])$, a Sobolev space of functions satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions. For a generic nonlinearity $f: \RR \to \RR$ we show…

A d-dimensional framework is an embedding of the vertices and edges of a graph in Euclidean space. A d-dimensional framework is globally rigid if every other d-dimensional framework with the same edge lengths has the same pairwise distances…

A geometrical structure on even-dimensional manifolds is defined which generalizes the notion of a Calabi-Yau manifold and also a symplectic manifold. Such structures are of either odd or even type and can be transformed by the action of…

Biharmonic maps between surfaces are studied in this paper. We compute the bitension field of a map between surfaces with conformal metrics in complex coordinates. As applications, we show that a linear map from Euclidean plane into…

In this paper, we establish some Schwarz type lemmas for mappings $\Phi$ satisfying the inhomogeneous biharmonic Dirichlet problem $ \Delta (\Delta(\Phi)) = g$ in $\mathbb{D}$, $\Phi=f$ on $\mathbb{T}$ and $\partial_n \Phi=h$ on…

We establish a global weighted $L^p$ estimate for the gradient of the solution to a divergence-form elliptic equations, where the coefficients are in a weighted VMO space and the equations have singularities on a co-dimension two boundary.

We give a complete classification of local and global conformal biharmonic maps between any two space forms by proving that a conformal map between two space forms is proper biharmonic if and only if the dimension is 4, the domain is flat,…

We provide a framework for the construction of diffeomorphism invariant sheaves of nonlinear generalized functions spaces. As an application, global algebras of generalized functions for distributions on manifolds and diffeomorphism…

We analyze the boundaries of multiply connected Fatou components of transcendental maps by means of universal covering maps and associated inner functions. A unified approach is presented, which includes invariant Fatou components (of any…

We deal with germs of diffeomorphisms that are reversible under an involution. We establish that this condition implies that, in general, both the family of reversing symmetries and the group of symmetries are not finite, in contrast with…

While the existence of conformal mappings between doubly connected domains is characterized by their conformal moduli, no such characterization is available for harmonic diffeomorphisms. Intuitively, one expects their existence if the…

In this paper, we establish the global $W^{2,p}$ estimate for the Monge-Amp\`ere obstacle problem: $(Du)_{\sharp}f\chi{_{\{u>\frac{1}{2}|x|^2\}}}=g$, where $f$ and $g$ are positive continuous functions supported in disjoint bounded $C^2$…

In this paper, we prove a global bifurcation result for the existence of non-radial branches of solutions to the paramterized family of $\Gamma$-symmetric problems $-\Delta u=f(\alpha,z,u)$, $u|_{\partial D}=0$ on the unit disc $D:=\{z\in…

We calculate the Wess-Zumino term $\Gamma(g)$ for a harmonic map $g$ of a closed surface to a compact, simply connected, simple Lie group $G$ in terms of the energy and the holonomy of the Chern-Simons line bundle on the moduli space of…

In this work we construct a variety of new complex-valued proper biharmonic maps and (2,1)-harmonic morphisms on Riemannian manifolds with non-trivial geometry. These are solutions to a non-linear system of partial differential equations…
