This is the second part of a two-paper series that establishes the uniqueness and regularity of a threshold energy wave map that does not scatter in both time directions. Consider the two-sphere valued equivariant energy critical wave maps…

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…

We consider the energy-critical wave maps equation $\mathbb R^{1+2} \to \mathbb S^2$ in the equivariant case, with equivariance degree $k \geq 2$. It is known that initial data of energy $ < 8k\pi$ and topological degree zero leads to…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold, and let $G$ be a compact simple Lie group with bi-invariant metric that is not $\operatorname{Sp}(n)$ for $n \geq 8$, $E_{8}$, $F_{4}$, or $G_{2}$. We show that the singular set of any stable…

For dimensions $n\geq8$, we are concerned with the quotient functional of the biharmonic Br\'{e}zis-Nirenberg problem under the Navier boundary condition $$ S(\varepsilon V):=\inf_{0\not\equiv u\in H^2(\Omega)\cap…

We exhibit a stable finite time blow up regime for the 1-corotational energy critical harmonic heat flow from $\Bbb R^2$ into a smooth compact revolution surface of $\Bbb R^3$ which reduces to the semilinear parabolic problem $$\partial_t u…

In this paper we consider sequences of $p$-harmonic maps, $p>2$, from a closed Riemann surface $\Sigma$ into the $n$-dimensional sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$ with uniform bounded energy. These are critical points of the energy $E_p(u)…

Consider the space $W^{2,2}(\Omega;N)$ of second order Sobolev mappings $\ v\ $ from a smooth domain $\Omega\subset\R^m$ to a compact Riemannian manifold $N$ whose Hessian energy $\int_\Omega |\nabla^2 v|^2\, dx$ is finite. Here we are…

In this paper, we establish the uniqueness of heat flow of harmonic maps into (N, h) that have sufficiently small renormalized energies, provided that N is either a unit sphere $S^{k-1}$ or a compact Riemannian homogeneous manifold without…

In this paper we consider critical points of the following nonlocal energy {equation} {\cal{L}}_n(u)=\int_{\R^n}| ({-\Delta})^{n/4} u(x)|^2 dx\,, {equation} where $u\colon H^{n/2}(\R^n)\to{\cal{N}}\,$ ${\cal{N}}\subset\R^m$ is a compact $k$…

We prove Lojasiewicz inequalities for the harmonic map energy for maps from surfaces of positive genus into general analytic target manifolds which are close to simple bubble trees and as a consequence obtain new results on the convergence…

Let $f$ be a positive smooth function on a close Riemann surface (M,g). The $f-energy$ of a map $u$ from $M$ to a Riemannian manifold $(N,h)$ is defined as $$E_f(u)=\int_Mf|\nabla u|^2dV_g.$$ In this paper, we will study the blow-up…

The aim of this note is to discuss in more detail the Pohozaev-type identities that have been recently obtained by the author, Paul Laurain and Tristan Rivi\`ere in the framework of half-harmonic maps defined either on $R$ or on the sphere…

In the joint work of the author with Da Lio and Rivi\`ere (Morse Index Stability for Sequences of Sacks-Uhlenbeck Maps into a Sphere) we studied the stability of the Morse index for Sacks-Uhlenbeck sequences into spheres as $p\searrow2$.…

In this paper we initiate the study of equivariant wave maps from 2d hyperbolic space into rotationally symmetric surfaces. This problem exhibits markedly different phenomena than its Euclidean counterpart due to the exponential volume…

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…

In this paper, we investigate critical maps of the horizontal energy functional $E_{H,\widetilde{H}}(f)$ for maps between two pseudo-Hermitian manifolds $(M^{2m+1},H(M),J,\theta )$ and $(N^{2n+1},\widetilde{H}(N),…

We consider the energy spectrum $\Xi_E(N)$ of harmonic maps from the sphere into a closed Riemannian manifold $N$. While a well known conjecture asserts that $\Xi_E(N)$ is discrete whenever $N$ is analytic, for most analytic targets it is…
