In this paper, we establish a general monotonicity formula of the following elliptic system $$ \Delta u_i+f_i(u_1,...,u_m)=0 \quad {\rm in} \Omega, \label{0.1} $$ where $\Omega\subset\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is a bounded domain,…

The connection between spherical harmonics and symmetric tensors is explored. For each spherical harmonic, a corresponding traceless symmetric tensor is constructed. These tensors are then extended to include nonzero traces, providing an…

In this paper we study compactness and quantization properties of sequences of 1/2-harmonic maps $u_k\colon\R\to {\cal{S}}^{m-1}$ such that $|u_k|_{\dot H^{1/2}(\R,{\cal{S}}^{m-1})}\le C.$ More precisely we show that there exist a weak…
