We study the symmetry and uniqueness of maps which minimise the $np$-Dirichlet energy, under the constraint that their Jacobian is a given radially symmetric function $f$. We find a condition on $f$ which ensures that the minimisers are…

A self-contained account of the theory of structure trees for edge cuts in networks is given. Applications include a generalisation of the Max-Flow Min-Cut Theorem to infinite networks and a short proof of a conjecture of Kropholler. This…

Given a half-harmonic map $u\in \dot H^{\frac{1}{2},2}(\mathbb{R},\mathbb{S}^1)$ minimizing the fractional Dirichlet energy under Dirichlet boundary conditions in $\mathbb{R}\setminus I$, we show the existence of a second half-harmonic map,…

We study the constrained minimum energy problem with an external field relative to the $\alpha$-Riesz kernel $|x-y|^{\alpha-n}$ of order $\alpha\in(0,n)$ for a generalized condenser $\mathbf A=(A_i)_{i\in I}$ in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geqslant…

We adopt the Koch-Tataru theory for the Navier-Stokes equations, based on Carleson measure estimates, to develop a scaling-critical low-regularity framework for half-harmonic map heat flows. This nonlocal variant of the harmonic map heat…

We prove that a quasiisometric map between rank one symmetric spaces is within bounded distance from a unique harmonic map. In particular, this completes the proof of the Schoen-Li-Wang conjecture.

We consider the question of quantitative stability of minimisers for a well-known variational problem for which the infimum of the energy is not achieved in the classical sense, namely for the Dirichlet energy of degree $1$ maps from closed…

We develop the notion of renormalized energy in CR geometry, for maps from a strictly pseudoconvex pseudohermitian manifold to a Riemannian manifold. This energy is a CR invariant functional, whose critical points, which we call CR-harmonic…

The purpose of this paper is to explore conditions which guarantee Lipschitz-continuity of harmonic maps w.r.t. quasihyperbolic metrics. For instance, we prove that harmonic quasiconformal maps are Lipschitz w.r.t. quasihyperbolic metrics.

We consider the minimizing problem for energy functionals with two types of competing particles and completely monotone potential on a lattice. We prove that the minima of sum of two completely monotone functions among lattices is located…

For an Euler system, with dynamics generated by a potential energy functional, we propose a functional format for the relative energy and derive a relative energy identity. The latter, when applied to specific energies, yields relative…

Motived by the heat flow and bubble analysis of biharmonic mappings, we study further regularity issues of the fourth order Lamm-Riviere system $$\Delta^{2}u=\Delta(V\cdot\nabla u)+{\rm div}(w\nabla u)+(\nabla\omega+F)\cdot\nabla u+f$$ in…

Consider the following Schr\"odinger-Bopp-Podolsky system in $\mathbb{R}^3$ under an $L^2$-norm constraint, \[ \begin{cases} -\Delta u + \omega u + \phi u = u|u|^{p-2},\newline -\Delta \phi + a^2\Delta^2\phi=4\pi u^2,\newline…

We study almost complex structures with lower bounds on the rank of the Nijenhuis tensor. Namely, we show that they satisfy an $h$-principle. As a consequence, all parallelizable manifolds and all manifolds of dimension $2n\geq 10$…

$\alpha$-Dirac-harmonic maps are variations of Dirac-harmonic maps, analogous to $\alpha$-harmonic maps that were introduced by Sacks-Uhlenbeck to attack the existence problem for harmonic maps from surfaces. For $\alpha >1$, the latter are…

We show the smoothness of weakly Dirac-harmonic maps from a closed spin Riemann surface into stationary Lorentzian manifolds, and obtain a regularity theorem for a class of critical elliptic systems without anti-symmetry structures.

We give a direct harmonic approximation lemma for local minima of quasiconvex multiple integrals that entails their $\mathrm{C}^{1,\alpha}$ or $\mathrm{C}^{\infty}$-partial regularity. Different from previous contributions, the method is…

We consider three fundamental classes of compact almost homogeneous manifolds and show that the complements of singular complex orbits in such manifolds are endowed with plurisubharmonic exhaustions satisfying complex homogeneous…

We consider planar $\sigma$-harmonic mappings, that is mappings $U$ whose components $u^1$ and $u^2$ solve a divergence structure elliptic equation ${\rm div} (\sigma \nabla u^i)=0$, for $i=1,2$. We investigate whether a locally invertible…

We introduce new quasi-Banach modulation spaces on locally compact abelian (LCA) groups which coincide with the classical ones in the Banach setting and prove their main properties. Then we study Gabor frames on quasi-lattices,…
