In this article, we prove energy quantization for approximate (intrinsic and extrinsic) biharmonic maps into spheres where the approximate map is in $L \log L$. Moreover, we demonstrate that if the $L\log L$ norm of the approximate maps…

In this work, we study the super-Liouville equation on the sphere with positive coefficient functions. We first examine the behavior of the equation under conformal transformations and derive a Pohozaev-type identity, which generalizes the…

We identify the Variational Principle governing inifinity-Harmonic maps, that is solutions to the Infinity-Laplacian. The system was first derived in the limit of the p-Laplacian as p->inifinity in [K2] and is recently studied in [K3]. Here…

We consider wave maps from $\mathbb R^{2+1}$ to a $C^\infty$-smooth Riemannian manifold, $\mathcal N$. Such maps can exhibit energy concentration, and at points of concentration, it is known that the map (suitably rescaled and translated)…

We consider various versions of the obstacle and thin-obstacle problems, we interpret them as variational inequalities, with non-smooth constraint, and prove that they satisfy a new constrained Lojasiewicz inequality. The difficulty lies in…

We classify all finite energy solutions of an equation which arises as the Euler--Lagrange equation of a conformally invariant logarithmic Sobolev inequality on the sphere due to Beckner. Our proof uses an extension of the method of moving…

Here we solve the problem posed by Comte and Lachand-Robert in (2001). Take a bounded domain \Omega in R^2 and a piecewise smooth non-positive function u : \bar{\Omega} \to R vanishing on the boundary of \Omega. Consider a flow of point…

We study Dirac-harmonic maps from degenerating spin surfaces with uniformly bounded energy and show the so-called generalized energy identity in the case that the domain converges to a spin surface with only Neveu-Schwarz type nodes. We…

In this sequel to arXiv:1510.03817, we apply our abstract Lojasiewicz-Simon gradient inequality to prove Lojasiewicz-Simon gradient inequalities for coupled Yang-Mills energy functions using Sobolev spaces which impose minimal regularity…

In this manuscript, we delve into the study of maps $u\in W^{1,2}(\Omega;\overline M)$ that minimize the Alt-Caffarelli energy functional $$ \int_\Omega (|Du|^2 + q^2 \chi_{u^{-1}(M)})\,dx, $$ under the condition that the image $u(\Omega)$…

For a Jacobi matrix J on l^2(Z_+) with Ju(n)=a_{n-1} u(n-1) + b_n u(n) + a_n u(n+1), we prove that \sum_{|E|>2} (E^2 -4)^{1/2} \leq \sum_n |b_n| + 4\sum_n |a_n -1|. We also prove bounds on higher moments and some related results in higher…

Let $B_2(p)$ be an $n$-dimensional smooth geodesic ball with Ricci curvature $\geq-(n-1)\kappa^2$ for some $\kappa\geq0$. We establish the Sobolev inequality and the uniform Neumann-Poincar\'e inequality on each minimal graph over $B_1(p)$…
