We consider half-harmonic maps from $\mathbb{R}$ (or $\mathbb{S}$) to $\mathbb{S}$. We prove that all (finite energy) half-harmonic maps are non-degenerate. In other words, they are integrable critical points of the energy functional. A…

The $L^{p}$ theory for non-isentropic Navier-Stokes equations governing compressible viscous and heat-conductive gases is not yet proved completely so far, because the critical regularity cannot control all non linear coupling terms. In…
We effect thermodynamical formalism for the non-uniformly hyperbolic $C^\infty$ map of the two dimensional torus known as the Katok map. It is a slowdown of a linear Anosov map near the origin and it is a local (but not small) perturbation.…
