In this article, we prove that the equation of the Schr\"odinger maps from ${\bf R}^2$ to the hyperbolic 2-space ${\bf H}^2$ is SU(1,1)-gauge equivalent to the following 1+2 dimensional nonlinear Schr\"odinger-type system of unknown three…

We prove that for any two closed Riemannian manifolds $M^{2m}$ ($m\geq 1$) and $N$, there exists a minimizing (extrinsic) $m$-polyharmonic map for every free homotopy class in $[M^{2m}, N]$, provided that the homotopy group $\pi_{2m}(N)$ is…

In previous works [4, 5], existence and uniqueness of travelling waves for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations have been shown for speeds close to the speed of sound. Furthermore, it has been proved that a chain of dark solitons of…

Harmonic maps are nonlinear extensions of harmonic functions. They are critical points of natural energy functionals between Riemannian manifolds. Such type of problems appear in Physics, Geometry of Finance and the study of regularity and…

We investigate the harmonic map heat flow from a compact Riemannian manifold \( M \) into the moduli space \( \mathcal{M}_1 \) of unit-area flat tori, which carries a natural hyperbolic structure as the quotient \( \mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})…

We study harmonic maps from a subset of the complex plane to a subset of the hyperbolic plane. In \cite{FotDask}, harmonic maps are related to the sinh-Gordon equation and a B{\"a}cklund transformation is introduced, which connects…

A classical result of Sampson and Schoen-Yau in 1978 states that every diffeomorphism between compact hyperbolic Riemann surfaces is homotopic to an harmonic diffeomorphism. As conjectured by Schoen in 1993 and partially proved by Wan in…

We define a Gauss map for surfaces in the universal cover of the Lie group PSL_2(R) endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric having a 4-dimensional isometry group. This Gauss map is not related to the Lie group structure. We prove…

In this paper, we will study the partial regularity theorem for stationary harmonic maps from a Riemannian manifold into a Lorentzian manifold. For a weakly stationary harmonic map $(u,v)$ from a smooth bounded open domain…

In recent work, two of the authors proposed a broad global well-posedness conjecture for cubic quasilinear dispersive equations in two space dimensions, which asserts that global well-posedness and scattering holds for small initial data in…

We give a sufficient criterion, which we call stability, for a coarse Lipschitz map $f$ from a complete manifold $X$ with Ricci curvature bounded below to a proper Hadamard space $Y$ to be within bounded distance of a harmonic map. We prove…

We introduce holomorphic Riemannian maps between almost Hermitian manifolds as a generalization of holomorphic submanifolds and holomorphic submersions, give examples and obtain a geometric characterization of harmonic holomorphic…

We consider nonlinear Schrodinger equations with either local or nonlocal nonlinearities. In addition, we include periodic potentials as used, for example, in matter wave experiments in optical lattices. By considering the corresponding…

In this paper, we define a class of new geometric flows on a complete Riemannian manifold. The new flow is related to the generalized (third order) Landau-Lifishitz equation. On the other hand it could be thought of a special case of the…

Doi proved that the $L^2_t H^{1/2}_x$ local smoothing effect for Schr\"odinger equation on a Riemannian manifold does not hold if the geodesic flow has one trapped trajectory. We show in contrast that Strichartz estimates and $L^1\to…
