A unified view is given to recent developments about a systematic method of constructing rational mappings as ergodic transformations with non-uniform invariant measures on the unit interval I=[0,1]. All of the rational ergodic mappings of…

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})…

By introducing a more flexible notion of convexity, we obtain a new Omori-Yau maximum principle for harmonic maps. In the spirit of the Calabi-Yau conjectures, this principle is more suitable for studying the unboundedness of certain…

In this paper, we discuss the associated family of harmonic maps $\mathcal{F}: M \rightarrow G/K$ from a Riemann surface $M$ into inner symmetric spaces of compact or non-compact type which are either algebraic or totally symmetric. These…

We consider polyharmonic maps $\phi:(M,g)\rightarrow $\mathbb{E}^n$ of order k from a complete Riemannian manifold into the Euclidean space and let $p$ be a real constant satisfying $1<p<\infty$. (i) If, $\int_M|W^{k-1}|^p dv_g<\infty,$ and…

We show that given a harmonic map $\varphi$ from a Riemann surface to a classical compact simply connected inner symmetric space, there is a $J_2$-holomorphic twistor lift of $\varphi$ (or its negative) if and only if it is nilconformal. In…

In a previous paper, we showed that any Jacobi field along a harmonic map from the 2-sphere to the complex projective plane is integrable (i.e., is tangent to a smooth variation through harmonic maps). In this paper, in contrast, we show…

Elliptic functions are largely studied and standardized mathematical objects. The two usual approaches are due to Jacobi and Weierstrass. From a contour integral which allowed us to unify many summation formulae (Euler-MacLaurin, Poisson,…

We define and compute hyperbolic coordinates and associated foliations which provide a new way to describe the geometry of the standard map. We also identify a uniformly hyperbolic region and a complementary 'critical' region containing a…

This is the first in a series of two papers to establish the mass-angular momentum inequality for multiple black holes. We study singular harmonic maps from domains of 3-dimensional Euclidean space to the hyperbolic plane having bounded…

In this article we give evaluations of certain series of hyperbolic functions using Jacobi elliptic functions theory. We also define some new functions that enable us to give characterization of not solvable class of series.

Radial eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on compact rank-one symmetric spaces may be expressed in terms of Jacobi polynomials. We use this fact to prove an identity for Jacobi polynomials which is inspired by results of…

This paper is a self-contained presentation of certain aspects of the theory of weighted Sobolev spaces and elliptic operators on non-compact Riemannian manifolds. Specifically, we discuss (i) the standard and weighted Sobolev Embedding…

Motivated by some recent results of Kalaj and Vuorinen (Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 2012), we prove that positive harmonic functions defined in the upper half--plane are contractions w.r.t. hyperbolic metrics of half--plane and positive part of…

We first prove stochastic representation formulae for space-time harmonic mappings defined on manifolds with evolving Riemannian metric. We then apply these formulae to derive Liouville type theorems under appropriate curvature conditions.…

We use the density function of a harmonic space to obtain estimates for the eigenvalues of the Jacobi operator; when these estimates are sharp, then the harmonic space is a symmetric Osserman space.

The Einstein/Abelian-Yang-Mills Equations reduce in the stationary and axially symmetric case to a harmonic map with prescribed singularities $\p\colon\R^3\sm\Sigma\to\H^{k+1}_\C$ into the $(k+1)$-dimensional complex hyperbolic space. In…

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 give a classification of rotational cmc surfaces in non-Euclidean space forms in terms of explicit parametrizations using Jacobi elliptic functions. Our method hinges on a Lie sphere geometric description of rotational linear Weingarten…
